Contrast the postcard view, titled "Entrance Somes Sound, North East Harbor, Me." in SWHPL 7010 with that of SWHPL 12460, which bears the title, "View near Somes Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." Both cards show the Nathaniel Gott House on Greenings Island. The image in SWHPL 12460 would be to the left or south of that in SWHPL 7010 if viewed from the water near Sutton Island. The title is misprinted on this card. It reads, "View near Somers Sound, So. West Harbor, Me." "Gladys" mailed the card to Miss Nena Reed in Seal Harbor from Center, Tremont, Maine on July 2, 1909.

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.
