Hotel and Feed Barn
Image
Photographic postcard of view across muddy road of a man wearing a suit and standing on the porch of the two-story Hotel and Feed Barn. Two signs next to him read, top, "BEER" and bottom, "Tom Moore 10¢ Cigars." The porch wraps around two sides of the building. On the right side are a bench, crates and barrels. Two more buildings are on the left. On the right are posts, railroad tracks and a snow-covered hill. Large trees surround the hotel.
