Description |
Miscellany -The Greek Revival-Style farmhouse of George S. Bates at 617 Mill Street (now Route 6), about 1903. The structure was built in the 1840s, and the 1867 Street Directory lists Bates as a farmer and trader. This unused real photo postcard surfaced in Wareham shortly after the rest of this book had already been sequenced. None of the veteran postcard collectors involved in the book's preparation had ever seen it before, raising the possibility that other heretofore-unknown postcard images of Marion will continue to be found in the future. |
