This postcard photograph is valuable to historians interested in Manset, Maine. The image shown here has, therefore, been cleaned for study. The original postcard, untouched, remains in the collection, as do all other images, in its original, scanned version. When archivists enlarged the photograph for study they could see that the original photograph had been altered before printing to blank out the sky. The area above the horizon was removed.
