Description: Good condition with pronounced corner rounding and some staining. Many RPPCs had staining owing to improper fixation in the darkroom. The irregularity of this stain leads me to believe that this "defect" was from the darkroom and not from later handling. Creameries and condenseries were relatively new in the early 1900's. The first commercial pasteurization took place at Sheffield Farms in Bloomville in 1892 and creameries soon appeared through the county and New York State owing to the availability of train service to take the "white gold" to the metropolitan markets. Trout Creek's creamery produced for both local and distant markets with wagons driven to the Erie Railroad station at Deposit. Railroad fever in the early 20th century evolved into a plan to build a railroad from Trout Creek to Deposit (the Delaware & Southern Railroad) and a detailed engineering survey was filed at the Delhi courthouse but the line was never built. My scans accurately show the condition of the card. Free first-class mail.
