8 Early 1900s Photos of Aroostook County, Maine & 2 of Victoria County, New Brunswick

Caribou Fish Hatchery in Winter

Eight early 1900s photographs of northern Aroostook County, Maine, and two of Victoria County, New Brunswick:
  • 2 photos of the Caribou Fish Hatchery, one in Winter and one in a warmer season; Caribou, Maine
  • Caribou High School; Caribou, Maine
  • Caribou Court House; Caribou, Maine
  • Fish River Falls, one of at least two on the Fish River in Aroostook County, Maine
  • two views of Portage Lake in Portage, Maine: the Inlet and Oak Point
  • unidentified Main Street, possibly Caribou, Maine
  • Grand Falls at Grand Falls, New Brunswick, near Hamlin, Maine
  • Bridge over the Tobique River in Victoria County, New Brunswick

It's possible that these photographs were taken to be made into postcards.

If  you recognize the "Main Street" below, please leave a comment.  The elevation behind and the road leading uphill may give a clue.
