OBJ.N.2023.148.1
Description
A black and white photograph that is part of a collection of pictures and postcards taken in the 1920s and 30s at Camp Roosevelt, a Boy Scout camp located outside Eddington, Maine. This picture portrays a large group of boys, over two dozen, in swim trunks standing on a lake dock and variously facing the camera or interacting with each other and ignoring it. The dock is presumably on Little Fitts Pond. One boy in the background is standing at a raised elevation, in what is likely a lifeguard post.
