This view shows a bandstand in Bath, the Steuben County seat in western New York, with a musical group posed with the structure. Town bandstands like this were a common feature of American small-town life from the late 1800s into the early 1900s, when community bands gave regular outdoor concerts in parks and town squares that drew families and neighbors together. The record gives no date, and its caption-card details are unverified, so the exact year is unknown. The wider Wittemann Collection includes bandstands from several other states.
