Promotional flyer with contest rules and a dachshund sitting in a small boat costume.

Posted to Beaver Island Boat Company (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Boat Company on 2013-03-07 16:42:43. Caption as posted: "CONTEST ALERT! We are doing a Pet Picture Contest in honor of March being National Irish American Heritage Month. Attached below is our Rules for the contest. Good Luck!"

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A green promotional flyer contains large white contest text and numbered rules. An inset photograph at lower right shows a dachshund sitting in a small white boat costume, with additional white text above the photograph.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Dock’s hund

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The catalogue record identifies this as a photograph posted to the Beaver Island Boat Company Facebook page on 2013-03-07. The captured caption describes a pet picture contest held in honor of March being National Irish American Heritage Month.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The lettering on the boat costume is stylized and may read “Dock’s hund.”

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
