Frank Jones' brewery and malt houses stand out on this board because they show a brewing complex built around malting, the step that turns grain into the malt beer needs, not just a single brewhouse. Jones was a Portsmouth, New Hampshire, brewer whose ale was widely sold in New England in the later 1800s, and his operation was one of the more prominent breweries in the region at that time. The shelflist card links the print to the Bufford name, likely the Boston lithography firm that produced many views of businesses and buildings in the 19th century. The record gives no date, so the exact year of the image is unknown, but its style fits that period.
