EDITORS COMMENTS
This photochrom print, created around 1899, showcases the Old Block House and harbor of Mackinac Island, Michigan, USA. The Old Block House, also known as Fort Mackinac, is a historic fortification located on the northern end of the island. Built in 1780, it is the oldest structure on Mackinac Island and a significant part of the island's rich history. The fort has served various roles throughout the years, from a British military garrison to a U.S. Army post, and is now a popular tourist attraction. The harbor, bustling with activity in this image, was once a vital hub for trade and transportation in the region. Ships from around the world would dock at the harbor, exchanging goods and supplies with the island's residents. The Old Block House and harbor are surrounded by picturesque houses and buildings, adding to the charming character of Mackinac Island. This photomechanical print, produced by the Detroit Publishing Company (not to be confused with the Detroit Publishing Co.), was likely part of a series promoting travel to the United States.

The Old Block House and harbor, located in Mackinac County, Michigan, USA, continue to be popular tourist destinations and are protected as a National Historic Landmark.
