    I've been looking at this photochrome for a while. Though subtle, the colour has great depth, and the shading differences are just exquisite. It was extremely well-done.
    The sign in the upper right of the mill appears to say CIDER MILL. The sign left of it looks to have a name on it, but it's too fuzzy to read.
    I haven't opened it to see if there are any names on the back of it. Based on the frame, I would suggest it's later 1910s-1920s.

      That's really a very serene scene. I can see why you've been looking at this for awhile. BEAUTIFUL!!

      Yeah, but I didn't like it's $20 price-tag. So, I waited a while for it to come down a bit (a year). Now I need to find a place to hang it. The problem is, I need to hang it away from sunlight and direct lamp-light: But I'm low on space for that, as those places are occupied (and I don't want to over-fill the walls, as that would look terrible).

      Most people would just think it's a photo. Few people can distinguish a photochrome from a normal photograph or a high-colour hand-touched photo (the antique store owner thought it was a chromolithograph. LOL). Though I was certain without studying it under the loupe, I used my loupe to verify it is a photochrome.
