Fall River Painted Ladies

As luck would have it, a visit to New Bedford’s antique mall on the cove yielded this post card of the gazebo discussed below which is on Maple Street behind the Easton tea house.  Unfortunately this is not a color card, but it is clear that the paint scheme today is quite different from the postcard.  Miss Brayton, incidentally, was one of the ladies who accompanied Lizzie Borden on her Grand Tour in 1890.
