Caption as posted: "It was bound to happen.Today is the last day of Museum Week 2015. There are some already out on the CMU tour and some waiting for this afternoon's events. Here's the schedule. Saturday July 25, 2015 @ 9:00 AM at CMU Biological Station: FIELD TRIP, BEAVER ISLAND’S INLAND LAKES Dan Benjamin will guide participants through the history and mechanisms driving the great diversity of the Island’s different Inland Lakes which vary widely in their chemical, physical and biological make up. Dan has vast knowledge of the natural and cultural history of the Archipelago and it’s a great trip for both "

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A watercolor-style illustration shows a white two-story house with a broad covered porch, dark-trimmed windows, and a pale roof. Shrubs and trees surround the house, with a freestanding sign at the right and a paved or light-colored road in front. A small red mark appears near the porch entrance.

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.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The archive record identifies this as an image posted to the Beaver Island Historical Society Facebook page on July 25, 2015. The accompanying post discusses the final day of Museum Week 2015 and a scheduled field trip concerning inland lakes, led by Dan Benjamin at the CMU Biological Station.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The lettering on the freestanding sign and the small mark at the lower left are not legible.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

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.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
