Sepia Photograph Farmington High School Main Street 1930 Class With Fold Out Mat
A sepia photograph of the Farmington High School on Main Street in downtown Farmington. The class shown in front of the building is the graduating class of 1930, although the photograph was taken in 1927. The photograph is contained within a bi-fold mat, which covers the photograph when closed. The mat is a gray decorative mat with an embossed border. A hand written key, on the back provides a list of students in the photo as well as the names of the teachers.
Condition: Good. The mat and photo appear to have been exposed to high humidity in storage at some point and that has led to both warping slightly , so it does not lay completely flat.
