For some reason the above image does not appear on the page even after a refresh but I am able to download it. Is it a link or an actual JPEG? -- Russ

Neither Dave's image nor Helmut's appears. But, as I said, I was able to download the jpeg. This is very odd. -- Russ

Russ, mine was a link to the Shorpy image.   
Not sure why it doesn't show up for you.

What a cool structure! It would make a great model. Even the fence is interesting. Too bad you can't get pics all around.

What part of the country is this?
