Titled "A Bright Spot," this long panoramic print stands out for its narrow, wide format, measuring about seven by forty-three and a half inches. Rufus W. Holsinger is credited as the maker, and the work belongs to a period when panoramic views of towns, streets and landscapes were popular as both prints and postcards. Its warm-toned gelatin silver process was the standard for photographs of this kind around 1911, and the wide format invites the viewer to take in the scene across its full length. The record does not identify the exact location, so the title and date are the best guides to its subject.
