Posted to Beaver Island Historical Society (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Historical Society on 2024-08-19 14:00:32. Caption as posted: "Updated hours for fall 2024. Hours will change to 1 PM - 4 PM starting September 12th for the Print Shop Museum and the Marine Museum."

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A composite graphic combines two exterior photographs with a large illustrated information panel. The upper photograph shows a white two-story building with a covered porch, flower beds, and a museum sign; the lower photograph shows a shingled building, trees, a wooden footbridge, and a green interpretive sign. The information panel includes a logo, an OPEN hanger, operating hours, donation information, a telephone number, and a website.

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 photograph posted to the Beaver Island Historical Society Facebook page by the society on 2024-08-19. The recorded caption says that fall 2024 hours would change to 1 PM–4 PM starting September 12 for the Print Shop Museum and Marine Museum.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The smaller explanatory text on the green interpretive sign cannot be read clearly.

Rights and credit

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

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.
