| About the Logo |
The exhibition logo is taken from a vignette on item
37: Thomas Sedgewick Steele and W. R. Curtis, Map of
Moosehead Lake, found with Steele's Canoe and Camera or Two
Hundred Miles Through the Maine Forests (New York: Orange Judd
Co., 1880). A varient of the vignette was repeated on the cover and within
the book itself (item 49). The navigation icons are all segments of item 40: Charles H. Havens's Map of Moosehead Lake, Maine (Boston, ca. 1870), the first printed map dedicated to the lake. |
