9395Clark Point Road - View to West to Main Street Bandstand
  • Image, Photograph, Picture Postcard, Real Photo
  • Places, Town
  • Eastern Illustrating & Publishing Company
  • 1925 c.
  • Southwest Harbor
  • Clark Point Road
A. L. [Arthur A.] Gilley's barber shop is on the left - a small building which forms but a fraction of the structure. It is possible that, at the time this photograph was taken, Maurice Marshall was renting the barber shop. The gasoline pumps shown on the right are in what is now the Post Office parking lot. The bandstand can just be seen across Main Street in the back of the photograph. The automobile is definitely c. 1925-1926 - very possibly a 1925 Maxwell 5 Passenger Sedan. To read about the Maxwell Motor Car Company - See “Maxwell Motor and the Making of the Chrysler Corporation” by Anthony J. Yanik, published by Wayne State University Press, 2009.

  • Southwest Harbor
  • Main Street
Buildings on the Left: The J.C. Ralph Building is the first structure. One of the old street lights and the Southwest Harbor Public Library wall are visible beyond the Ralph building. The building after the library property is the Freeman J. Lurvey building - now 334 Main Street. Buildings on the Right: The rustic porch of the later demolished Elisha Crane House is visible on corner of Clark Point Road. The sign for what is now Clark Point Road refers to Steamboat Wharf, which is now part of the US Coast Guard property at the end of Clark Point Road. The horse drinking fountain is in the street in front of it. The Southwest Harbor School House as Harmon Block is the large white block-like building. The bell tower on the old Freeman Grammar School, now Harbor House, can be seen behind the Harmon Block. The small building at the far right was the George Gilley plumbing shop (later The Gilley Plumbing Company) at what is now 315 Main Street.

  • Tremont, Bass Harbor
The building with the tower in the distant background was the Charles B. Dix / Simeon Amassa Holden house and the stable (now moved) is the large building in the field behind it. The boathouse for that property, the Captain Charles B. Dix (1836-1906) Boat House, is on the white house directly on the shore next to the large clump of trees. It was the Lyle Arlington Reed house at the time the picture was taken - 143 Harbor Drive (Route 102A), Tremont, Maine. The building out on the spit is Little Island Marine, begun after WWII c. 1945-1946. The business on the shore just to the right of the wharf building was Lyle Arlington Reed’s store - 35 Shore Road, Bass Harbor (formerly McKinley), Maine. The small brown house in the middle of the large lot at the right, almost at the corner of McMullen Avenue and the Shore Road belonged to George Al Lovejoy (1903-1964). The house is now gone. It probably sat on the 9 McMullen Avenue property, Map 12 – Lot 44. The large building in the right foreground was owned by H.G. Reed and housed the Post Office on the ground floor facing the Shore Road – 45 Shore Road, Bass Harbor, Maine – Map 12 – Lot 43 The building at the left foreground was W.H. Thurston's General Store – later the Seafood Ketch restaurant – 47 Shore Road – Map 12 – Lot 42.
