Blasting Stumps on the Isted Farm
"'Blasting stumps' on the Isted Farm. Whipple Photo."
A dramatic real photo postcard showing the detonation of dynamite or some other explosive in an apparent attempt to clear tree stumps from a field.
Evidently, though, the blast didn't look impressive enough, so the photographer drew on the negative to add large pieces of fake debris flying high into the air. It also appears that the photographer crossed out an earlier caption and wrote the words "blasting stumps" over it.
I haven't been able to determine the location of "Isted Farm" or the identity of the "Whipple Photo" photographer.
