11734Fish Factory Workers in Southwest Harbor with Horse Mackerel and Halibut
  • Image, Photograph
  • People
  • Worth
  • 1891
  • Southwest Harbor
"The catch. probably tuna (called horse mackerel locally), has arrived at the packing house, having been dressed on board vessel. Now it is up to this hardy packing crew to wash these monstrous fish before packing them for shipment to Boston. Except for Asian markets, which existed mostly in large cities, there were few buyers for this product. At other times this packing house was filled with the more predominant fish of the day: hake, cod, haddock, and mackerel. Crews would wash the fish, lather them with salt, and pack them in ice in the tall barrels shown at rear for shipment to Gloucester or Boston. Only a few dealers in Manset, such as the Parkers, specialized in halibut, as it had to be shipped fresh on ice. Mackerel was the only product that had to be inspected once it arrived in Gloucester. As this list suggests, local fisheries processed a variety of fish. The local fishermen would head out, from spring through fall, following the schools, returning with whatever the sea would offer, and putting extra change in their pockets." – Text accompanying this photograph in “Mount Desert Island - Somesville, Southwest Harbor, and Northeast Harbor” by Earle G. Shettleworth Jr. and Lydia B. Vandenbergh - Images of America Series, 2001. p. 43.

8266Robert Lindsay Smallidge Sr. and his Honeymoon Motorcycle
  • Image, Photograph

  • Turner - Helen Nathalie (Turner) Smallidge
  • 1921-05
  • Northern Maine
Robert Lindsay Smallidge, Sr's 1921 Harley-Davidson JDS Sidecar Model was identified by fender and sidecard shapes using pictures and description from “The Encyclopedia of the Harley-Davidson” by Peter Henshaw & Ian Kerr, p. 18, 21, 30, 135 - 2006. Corroborating identification was made using several web sites. Judging from photographs of previous Harley-Davidson models we assume that Robert bought the cycle new in anticipation of his honeymoon. Robert and Nathalie's honeymoon was spent exploring northern Maine on Robert's motorcycle and it seems probable that this photograph was taken on that trip. Their son, Robert Lindsay Smallidge Jr. remembered their telling their children that Robert was passing a car while driving the cycle and Nathalie, in the sidecar, collided with the other vehicle. This photograph was probably taken by Helen Nathalie (Turner) Smallidge.
