(3) Antique Photos from Gorham Manufacturing Co.. in Providence, RI. (1) is a photo of cars parked in front of the the Chopmist Hill Inn, RI there to celebrate the Fourth Annual Outing Gorham Quarter Century Club on August 18, 1923. It is 8x10 matted to 11x3 3/4. It is black & white and in the first few cars you can see people. The matting has water damage but the photo seems fine. The year 1923 is written in pencil on the right bottom. The other (2) photos are of the inside of the Gorham plant - lots of machinery and people. One is 7x9 and the other is 7x 7 1/2 and both are glued to a 10x12 mat. They are sepia tones. On the larger one on the mat is written "Lester Harris at Gorhams Mfg. Co. about 1902" and on the smaller one on the mat is written "Lester Harris". The mat on the smaller photo is cracked on the right top corner 2 1/2" down and 2" across - the photo is fine. Also included is a 2"x10" blue ribbon - "SUMMER OUTING The Office, Spoon and Die Departments of the Gorham Mfg. Company June 11, 1904. PITCHER".Please make payment within 7 days of purchase.I have other ephemera for sale and will combine shipping.
