Description

This postcard features one of the oldest known photographs of the Turner-Ingersoll mansion. Notice that there is no gable on the south side of the home because the picture was taken before the 1909-1910 restoration of the house. This image was either sold by the Upton family after giving a tour of the house or perhaps found among souvenirs at another local Salem business.
