Dover Foxcroft Maine Mayo Residence 1913 RPPC Postcard Posted Divided Back

This 1913 Dover Foxcroft, Maine real photo postcard documents the residence of Col. E. J. Mayo in a mailed divided back format with clear dated postmark.

Dover Foxcroft developed as a Piscataquis County center tied to timber, river trade, and regional civic leadership, with substantial private homes reflecting local prominence. Early twentieth-century residential RPPCs frequently emphasized setting, scale, and seasonal conditions rather than close architectural detail. The composition presents the house amid open snow-covered ground and mature evergreens.

The photograph shows a multi-story wood-frame residence with wraparound porch and gabled rooflines, partially screened by two tall pine trees in the foreground. A secondary outbuilding stands to the left, and bare deciduous trees frame the right side of the scene. The lower margin includes a handwritten caption reading Residence of Col. E. J. Mayo Foxcroft Me., and the reverse confirms postal use with legible 1913 cancellation.
