Promotional poster with text about a fiddle-music book launch and images of musicians playing fiddles.

Posted to Beaver Island Historical Society (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Historical Society on 2024-04-11 14:00:14. Caption as posted: "Join us at the Beaver Island District Library on April 13th for the launch of Gleen Hendrixs new book. Looking forward to seeing you there!"

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A cream-colored promotional poster has green leafy decorations in the corners and several blocks of black text. A large grayscale drawing shows an older man playing a fiddle, with two smaller photographs below showing men holding fiddles. The poster also includes event information and a Zoom link.

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 an image posted to the Beaver Island Historical Society Facebook page on April 11, 2024, with the accompanying caption inviting viewers to a book launch on April 13.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The small Zoom URL and some Irish-language characters are difficult to verify at this resolution.

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.
