Sally - Spencer Bay Club, Moosehead Lake, Greenville, Maine A17C

Close-up image of a deer in a lightly wooded area, with a view of the lake in the background. Spencer Bay is a major northeastern arm of Moosehead Lake, known for its pristine remotenes, beauty, and recreational appeal, particularly for fisherman. The title, "Sally", suggests the animal was a frequent visitor to whom Spencer Bay Club members gave a name. The image shows cracking, due to emulsion shrinkage on the negative's acetate. A note on the negative sleeve reads: "Original sent in by Amory Houghton, Spencer Bay Club, Moosehead Lake, Greenville, Maine Winter address: Belfast, Maine"
