Sherwood's First Newspaper

Title

Sherwood's First Newspaper

Description

Black and white image of two men standing in a room with two printing presses. Notice the power lines running along the wall and over onto the ceiling, and the hand tools hanging on the wall. Despite the fact that the caption on the photo gives the date as 1911, a close examination of the photo reveals that the calendar hanging between the two windows in the rear of the photo gives a date of November, 1914. It is possible the date refers to the founding of the newspaper rather than the date of the photo itself.
