Can't tell if the dog is sitting in the remnants of some old rolltop desk by the name of "PHENIX"

The Library of Congress said:
You can have a closer look if you go to a higher resolution version that is available at the persistent URL listed in the description. Click on the thumbnail photo and then open the TIFF file.

porkfork6 said:
That made a difference. In the TIFF the dog looks like he is missing an eye, the upright pencils on the front of the desk, and that there is a wooden-handled umbrella leaning on the fence behind them. It may also be shoelaces hanging in front of the dog.

I don't believe the dog is missing an eye, at least I don't see evidence of that.

Alas, Dan Fink, the author of "Barns of the Genesee County" is dead...but I'd bet the LOC has one somewhere.
