Wasn't familiar with the concept "Old Home Week"...sounds like it is a tradition whereby former residents of a town return for a sort of town-wide reunion. Around here that would call for bringing in the patio furniture and locking the doors and windows...

Exactly what it is and many towns in PA still do this regularly.

If that's an old colored postcard, that mill must predate the Revolution. :wink:

Wonderful mill! People even visible. Wonder when the photo was made? Any indication on the card? I'm guessing 1920s or even '30s. It does look old.
It would take a lot of space to model but it could be used as a flat and/or pared down in size as Lionel did/does their non scale stuff.

Probably in that time frame. A lot fo earlier B&W cards were reprinted colorized.

Could capture parts as background flats. In its entirety, it has a huge footprint.

That could make a nice small industry for a layout.

A book compilation of your photo collection would be an absolute "killer". You have an excellent eye. Might have said that before, but the stuff is just exceptional!
