Street Scene

Image

View down street, with two men posed standing in the street. There are wooden sidewalks on both sides of the street, with a storefront on the left, and a woman standing underneath a sign that says: "Butterick Patterns". On the right is a harness shop and a general store. In the background can be seen the Methodist Episcopal Church, and a steep hill rises above it in the far background.
