About this postcard

A large stucco resort building with a tall square clock tower and tiled roof stands among tall pines and firs. Arched windows and a canopied entrance face a curving dirt drive, with a smaller gabled wing at left. Poland Spring in South Poland, Maine, was a mineral-spring resort that drew summer guests in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Its spring water was bottled and sold widely by the early 1900s.
