Promotional flyer with voting instructions, bold typography, and a child reading a newspaper.

Posted to Beaver Island Historical Society (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Historical Society on 2021-03-19 14:58:41. Caption as posted: "Vote for Beaver Island. A postcard is worth 10 votes and a tweet is worth 1 vote. If you have an opportunity today or tomorrow please drop a postcard in the mail. It can be any postcard about Michigan. Also, the library has postcards available for voting."

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A vertically oriented promotional flyer uses bold maroon and black typography with a two-column layout explaining two voting methods. A monochrome line-art illustration of a child in a cap and overalls appears on the right, holding up a newspaper. Logos and contact information run along the bottom.

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 a post to the Beaver Island Historical Society Facebook page, posted by the Beaver Island Historical Society on 2021-03-19. The record's captured caption asks viewers to vote using postcards or tweets and notes that postcards are available at the library.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The illustrated figure's exact identity and the small details within the newspaper are unclear.

Rights and credit

Community source, no stated terms; published non-commercially with attribution and a link to the original post.

Credit this to Individual posters, credited per image when you use it.

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.
