Photographs, Black and White ; 24 x 18 cm.

The black and white aerial photograph shows a patchwork of rectangular agricultural fields extending across the landscape. Several intersecting roads and diagonal rail lines run through the center, with a curved rail spur in the lower right. Tree-lined streams and scattered clusters of trees are visible throughout the scene, particularly along the left side and near road junctions. A few small buildings are dispersed among the fields. The handwritten number “8226-365” appears at the top right, and printed text at the bottom right reads: “FAIRCHILD AERIAL SURVEYS INC. N.Y.C.”
