For your consideration is a nice lot of 2 Woods Hole, (a village in Falmouth) Massachusetts stereoviews. Both views were photographed and published by Kilburn Brothers, Littleton, N.H.

The top view is identified in pencil on the mount as "Yacht Elaine, Woods Hole". This is a great view looking across the road at the boats in Little Harbor with the houses on the strip of land in the distance. This has a great 3D effect. There is light overall soiling.

From Woods Hole Reflections, pg 16:

"Little Harbor, ca. 1869 at junction of Woods Hole road and Church Street. In the foreground on the extreme left, the Reuben Hamlin Barn, later the site of Walter Luscombe, Sr.'s house, 1886. Barn on the right belonged to to Simeon Hamlin. In this barn, one courageous citizen ambushed himself in 1776, and firing alternately through holes he had made in the side of the barn, he gave the enemy the impression that there were many men in the barn. He thus repulsed a large body of attacking British. On extreme right, part of Simeon Hamlin's house, late the site of Walter Luscombe, Jr.'s house, now owned by Veeder family."

The bottom view is titled "After the Regatta" (#1003). This is a great image of four women sitting in a boat in the foreground with other boats and the shore behind them. The images are light and there is writing on the verso along with some light overall soiling.

Please view the enlargeable scans carefully and contact me with any questions.
