Baraga 1853, printed p. 25 (scan leaf 43): 'Amikogenda, Beaver-Island, in Lake Michigan.'
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A cream-colored printed dictionary page is arranged in two columns, with bold and italicized headwords followed by definitions and grammatical abbreviations. The running headers read “AMI” and “ANA,” and the page number 25 appears at the top center. The paper shows light discoloration and foxing near the edges.
A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.
Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.
