Caption as posted: "Please join us in supporting the Beaver Head Lighthouse Preservation Project by making a tax deductible donation. https://www.beaverislandhistory.org/donation/ The Beaver Island Historical Society will host Eastern Michigan University’s Historic Preservation Program May 20-28, 2023. The Society is excited to welcome back the field school staff and students to continue preservation work at the Beaver Head Lighthouse. Last spring the preservation group repaired and painted screen doors, wainscot in the tower, documented the buildings and created a variety of adaptive uses for consideration. "
Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked
A white two-story wood-sided building has a broad covered porch supported by square columns, dark-trimmed windows, and steps leading to the entrance. Flower boxes line the porch railings, while landscaped plants and small American flags border the sidewalk. A large sign with a lighthouse emblem is mounted high on the front facade.
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.

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.
