Description

Color photo from one gable end of Susquehanna, a cedar shake gable roof story and a half clapboard house with integral porches on each long axis. There is an outside end chimney on the near gable end and another chimney on the roof peak about half way along. There are four gable roofed dormers in this side of the roof, each with a six over six double hung window. On the first floor there is one six over six double hung window with green shutters in the gable end next to the chimney and four similar windows across the long wall under the porch roof. There is one door to the house about a third of the way down the wall and another door with a transom window at the far end of the porch. There are three chairs, a bench, and a high backed double bench on the porch. The five posts supporting the roof are rather plain. The porch floor is just a short way above the ground, supported on wood beams. The space looks ideal for small animals. There are wooden steps from the porch floor to the ground in front of each door. There is gravel around the house. There is some sort of pink mold on the gable end and some of gables. The paperwork associated with the donation is with the photo. ***************************************************** Text on verso: 3 1/4"h x 4"w label with details about reproducing the photo in black flair ink "THF2023" in lower right corner
