Illustrated poster showing a lion wearing eyeglasses beside a recycling donation message.

Posted to Beaver Island Association (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Association on 2022-03-21 17:54:22. Caption as posted: "The Beaver Island Association is participating in the Lions Recycle for Sight used eyeglasses collection program and hearing aids would like to encourage community members to donate their used eyeglasses. Collection boxes have been placed in the Beaver Island Community Center, the library, and the Commission on Aging office until May 15, 2022. “We need everyone to donate their old glasses,” said Dick Mulvihill, President of the Beaver Island Association. “In most developing countries, eye care is either unaffordable or inaccessible.

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A colorful illustrated poster features a close-up lion wearing large black eyeglasses. Bold yellow, blue, white, and black lettering fills the lower portion, with eyeglass and hearing-aid symbols and organizational logos at right.

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.

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 social-media post made by the Beaver Island Association on 2022-03-21. The accompanying caption says the organization was participating in the Lions Recycle for Sight used-eyeglasses collection program and was also soliciting hearing aids, with collection boxes placed at several community locations until May 15, 2022.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The small text and symbols within the logos at the lower right are not fully legible.

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.
