Description

Photograph of an aerial view of the Puddingstone Reservoir, ca.1920. The bright water washes up against the dark banks at center ad the lightly-colored levee on the right. What appears to be a long building stands along the bank to the left of the levee with the dark, rolling hills behind it. Fields of crops can be seen faintly in the background.
