Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the old home of T. Robertson in disrepair, ca.1930. A two-story Regency-style home is pictured at center, turned in three-quarters profile. In front, the tawdry remains of a picket fence dot the edge of sandy ground, with a dead tree visible to the left. The home itself is missing shingles from its roof, and several of its windows are misshappen or feature broken shutters. The second of the home that appears to be annexed to the back seems to be collapsing altogether. In later years, the home was owned by Mr. Alderson.
