4 photo prints which depict various locations in Saugatuck. There is an image from atop Mt. Baldhead which looks over the town. Two women are visible in the image. There is an image of the Big Pavilion with the interurban car in front as well as the Holland to Saugatuck train with passengers boarding it. The next photo is an exterior shot of the Hotel Butler with cars parked in front of it. And the final photo is of a street in Saugatuck in the winter with horse drawn sleighs along with road. The dates for these prints are unknown, but based on dress, car models, etc., it can be estimated that they are from the early 20th century. These are all large prints and are most likely recent copies.Collection

GoodNotes
The photos are in very good condition. The only damage present is some slight curling to the edges. This is most likely due to age or having been placed in a cramped folder for a long period of time.Relationships
