For your consideration is a nice stereoview titled \"Kiarsarge House, North Conway, N.H.\". This is a great view looking across the landscape at the front of the hotel. Note the absence of any activity. This has a great 3D effect. The view was photographed and published by Kilburn Brothers, Littleton, N.H. (#988). There is a dark spot along the right edge of the left image as well as a few lighter spots in the sky of the left image. You will also find corner wear and overall soiling.
Please view the enlargeable scans carefully and contact me with any questions.
From Wikipedia:
\"The Kearsarge House (earlier Kiarsarge House) was a grand hotel in North Conway New Hampshire, from 1872 until it was destroyed by fire on October 18, 1917. Its legacy is continued by the nearby Kearsarge Inn which has a clock from the original hotel. Samuel W. Thompson carried mail to the town and other areas including a route he started to Glen House, another grand hotel in the area, until a rail line was established in the area in 1871. As visitor numbers increased, the hotel was scaled up by Thompson who also acted as a promoter for the area.\"
