Related Object Info Harbor Hill, Long Island Hand crafted album consists of 33 mostly large (approximately 27 x 32cm.) gelatin silver photographs attached to brown paper pages. First page image is of the exterior of American millionaire financier Clarence H. Mackay's celebrated home, Harbor Hill in Roslyn, Long Island, designed by Stanford White of McKim, Mead, and White, the largest home White ever designed. The rest of the images document the interior great halls and rooms, heraldic flags hanging in the coffered or timbered ceilinged rooms filled with the owner's collection of medieval suits of armor, tapestries and sculpture. Small clipped newsprint descriptions and typed labels caption some of the photographs. Some of the pages also have rubber stamped numbers, in no apparent sequence. Images are glued to pages and are slightly cockled. The album cover, of the same brown paper is hand titled in neat block letters in ink and a cut-out image of a stone entrance and wooden door is attached. Overall good condition.
