Str. Mt. Washington at Weirs Landing, New Hampshire, c1906: A Captivating Moment in American Water Transport History This evocative photograph captures the majestic steam-powered sidewheeler Str. Mt. Washington as it gracefully approaches Weirs Landing on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire, United States. The image, estimated to have been taken around 1906, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the grandeur and allure of a bygone era. The Str. Mt. Washington, a passenger steamer, was a popular means of transportation and recreation during the early 20th century. This sidewheeler, operated by the Detroit Publishing Company, was one of several vessels that plied the waters of Lake Winnipesaukee, connecting various towns and communities along its shores. In this photograph, the steamer's powerful side paddle wheels churn the water, creating a gentle wake as the boat glides towards the dock. Passengers, both men and women, can be seen on the deck, some waving or taking in the scenic beauty of the lake and surrounding landscape. The pier, with its simple yet sturdy design, extends into the water, providing a connection between land and water. This image, a dry plate glass negative measuring 8 x 10 inches, is a testament to the rich heritage of American water transport and the role it played in connecting communities and facilitating travel during the early 1900s. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is now part of the collections at the Library of Congress, preserving this moment in history for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
