Ivy climbs the brick walls and a tall Romanesque bell tower rises through the canopy of mature elms surrounding Orange's High School — a stately New England academic building photographed with the quiet pride of a community that knew its institutions were worth preserving on paper. Mailed from Orange, Massachusetts on November 5, 1906 with a handwritten note running vertically up the image edge, the card was sent by someone signing as "Christelle" (or similar) to a Mrs. C. P. B. in Hyndsville, Schoharie County, New York. Published by The Rotograph Co. of New York City (printed in Germany), this is a crisp pre-linen photographic print on undivided-back stock.
