Armour Estate, “The Timbers,” Photograph Collection contains 82, 8x10" sheet film negatives and a small selection of prints of the Armour Estate, located on Long Lake in Long Lake Township, Michigan. 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.
