View from shore of the landing with cruising motorboats tied up at floats at the Spencer Bay Club waterfront, Moosehead Lake. Mt. Kineo is visible in the distance across the lake. Spencer Bay, the location of several sporting camps by the mid-20th century, is a major eastern arm of Moosehead Lake, known for its pristine remotenes, beauty, and recreational appeal - particularly fishing. The image shows cracking, due to emulsion shrinkage on the negative's acetate. A note on the negative sleeve reads: "Original owned by Amory Houghton, Spencer Bay Club, Moosehead Lake, Greenville, Maine Winter address: Belfast, Maine"
