For your consideration is a nice stereoview titled "Court Street, Plymouth, Mass." This is a great image looking down the sidewalk in front of the Samoset House (note the sign over the entrance of the hotel). It has a nice 3D effect. The view was photographed and published by Kilburn Brothers, Littleton, N.H. (#476). There is light overall soiling/staining. Please view the enlargeable scans carefully and contact me with any questions. From Vanished Plymouth:"An early impression of Samoset House is found in the November 21, 1849 issue of The Odd Fellow by "Ida Graham": I left New York in June and came to Plymouth, and the Samoset House." This may be considered, in proportion to its size, one of the finest hotels in the country, delightfully situated, commanding a fair view of the ocean, a little removed from the stir of the village, with green hills and woods, in which you may bury yourself on a summer's day, rising around it. The proprietors are gentemanly and accomodating, the cuisine excellent, and the company assembled here always of a superior order. Those who wish quiet and comfort, delicious air and country beauties, will find far more of these things here than in the heart and bustle of a crowded watering place.-- Webster, our great statesman, our country's glory, has frequently dined here with his family in the summer." Over the coming months we will be thinning out our collection focused on Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket and the South Shore.
