  • Today is #NationalBrownieDay! 📷 (We know, this isn’t the type of brownie you were thinking of.) This Eastman Kodak brownie camera from the museum’s collections is dated to approximately 1957-1965, and was donated by the Wolff Family. The “Brownie” camera series was an affordable and popular style of camera created by Eastman Kodak in Rochester, NY, and introduced to the world in the early 20th century. Did you have a brownie camera growing up? #BrownieCamera #HistoricCamera #theADKX #MuseumCollections #Cameras #Photography #Kodak #Adk #Adirondacks
  • From the historic photo collection: A gelatin silver print, featuring a team of horses pulling a sled, carrying a tree wrapped in burlap (ca. 1910). 🌲 Text below the photo reads: "Picture taken at Little Moose Lake. This is a picture of the first Christmas tree to be set up in Times Square, New York City, and was given by the Adirondack League Club, and the flat railroad car was furnished by the New York Centeral [sic] Railroad, to take it from Thendara to New York City. Those in the picture are from left to right, back of sleigh: Lewis L. Grant, James Scanlon, Merle White, Peter McDermit, the teamster is Peter Zimmer and Leo Geiskopf's head just shows, beyond Zimmer." #theADKX #Holidays #HistoricPhoto #MuseumCollections #Adk #Adirondacks
