Hunter with birds hanging in front of brick bldg. Hunter showing trophies. Lincolnville Mahoney house In this photo one can see a hunter and the numerous game birds he has shot strung in front of an up-ended pallet. Atop the pallet one can see a taxidermized squirrel to the left and what looks like a vacuum cleaner on the right, and on the window sill, a taxidermized owl. Also seen in this image are the hunter's shotguns and a hunting dog. The dog looks like Charles Coombs' dog Victor. As Coombs was a taxidermist, the stuffed squirrel and owl suggest a connection with him and the hunter looks like a gentleman seen in other Coombs images Mystery question: What is the object that looks like an Electrolux vacuum cleaner?
