    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.
  • Yaronimus said:
    i wish the entire LOC liberary was designed in web 2.0, like getty images or flickr. but altogether - thanks very much for your donations and sharing.
  • quizzical swim said:
    I don't believe the dog is missing an eye, at least I don't see evidence of that.

  • David Traver Adolphus said:
    Alas, Dan Fink, the author of "Barns of the Genesee County" is dead...but I'd bet the LOC has one somewhere.
