Additional Information
Published in 1888 by the Burleigh Lithograph Establishment of Troy, New York, this colorful bird's-eye view presents the town of Bridgton in the lakes region of western Maine. An index identifies points of interest while illustrations of prominent buildings border the composition, sold locally through sole agent Fred C. Gibbs.
Bridgton grew as a small manufacturing and agricultural center in Cumberland County, situated between Long Lake and Highland Lake amid the forested foothills of the White Mountains. Sawmills, grain operations, and woolen factories harnessed local waterpower while the countryside supplied timber, hay, and dairy products to regional markets.
By the 1880s, the area was gaining popularity as a retreat for visitors drawn by clean mountain air, excellent fishing, and the quiet beauty of the nearby lakes. The narrow-gauge Bridgton and Saco River Railroad carried seasonal guests from the main line, filling boarding houses and camps each July and August.
This reproduction offers a window into a peaceful New England community balancing traditional industry with the rising promise of tourism and recreation. Considered among the finest small-town Maine views of the era, it brings rural charm to any office, study, or living room.
