Print, Photographic

Sepia-toned photo of the exterior of the Cold Storage Building of the Wayne County Poor Farm in Eloise, Michigan, taken from a photo album of air conditioning installations done by the Detroit Ice Machine Company in 1937. The building is a large brick structure, with few windows but several vents. Several cars are parked outside of it. Construction materials, including bricks and pipes are piled in the foreground at the lower right atop a cement slab. "M-2005," is printed near the lower right corner of the photo. The photo is mounted on a linen photo album page with a flap on the left hand side with three holes for binding.
