Description

Color: Black; White A black and white photograph of Agnes Temple's dog, Mackie Boy by the waterside, March 8, 1931. The dog stands at the center on the stone-lined shore and faces to the left. It has white fur but darker fur around the eyes, ears, and the neck and stretches forward as it sniffs the ground pulling the leash on the right. In the background is water with reflections of wood posts from the marina docks along the top. Written in pencil at the center of the back is, "March 8/31." The photograph was housed in Agnes Temple's album which is item 96.7.94.1 along with many other photographs which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With some water damage, stains, and a mounting corner adhered to the top left, the artifact is in fair condition. Number-Units: 1
