The front of the postcard is titled Harbor View, Southwest Harbor and shows a view of Deacon's Cove at low tide. Black's Ledge is in the foreground and Deacon's Cove is left of center. The photograph was taken from the western point of Clark or Deacon's Cove, Southwest Harbor, Maine. The ledge is an extension of the point. "Clark's" or "Deacon's Cove" which refers to Deacon Henry Higgins Clark (1811-1897), a patriarch of Southwest Harbor. The postcard was written by Annie Matilda (Crozier) Rand - Mrs. Edward Lothrop Rand, staying at the Seaside Inn at Seal Harbor to one year old Hollis Theodore Greenleaf in North Edgecomb, Maine. Annie has just left her brother-in-law Henry L. Rand's house, "Fox Dens," in Southwest Harbor. The back of the postcard reads: "Dear Hollis, This is a picture of the harbor where I stayed for a week before coming here. But you cannot see where "Fox Dens" is. That is what the place is called where I stayed before coming here. The land is covered with trees and right in among the rocks near the shore is built a bungalow. You would love to lie in your carriage on the piazza & look over the water. But you live in a very beautiful place. My kind rembrances to your mother & all. Love from A.M. Rand" The back of the postcard was originally SWHPL 8482, but has been combined with this item.

Gilley's Barber Shop, Dr. R.J. Lemont's Drug Store and residence, Stephen Harmon's General Store, and William J. Tower's residence.

The photograph shows one of the Indian shacks on Indian Lot on the rise across the road on the right, two horses and buggies rounding the bend, a dory, a cat boat (?), a canoe and the "sunken vessel", probably the Schooner Palestine.. The white barn on the left belonged to William Gilman Parker, Deacon Henry Higgins Clark’s son-in-law. The dark shed-like building at the edge of the water was part of the Deacon’s shipyard.
