The bulk of the images are of the interior of the main building (also known as the Mansion), photographed around 1944. To market the Estate for sale, Traverse City-based Send & Send Photographers were hired to take both interior and exterior shots of the buildings. The Armour Estate was built on a piece of lakefront property, long used as a resort area called The Timbers, by J. Ogden Armour and Lola Spencer Sheldon Armour in 1919. The architect was Arthur Heun.

Description
An account of the resource
Colored postcard image of Indian Trail Bridge, which was actually Mitchell Creek bridge on the West Michigan Pike in Traverse City. This section was called ”Hamilton Way” after Frank Hamilton who was very dedicated to the development of roads in this area. The Indian Trail Camp Tourist hotel frequently had a sign up at this bridge, which may be why the creators called this image "Indian Trail Bridge".
