Ben Smith Boat Landing
Bring a little Maynard home.
Metal Art Sign · 7 × 5 inches
An indoor wall near the entryway or desk is somewhere you pass often, with time to notice the sign's picture between setting down your keys and the next task. Boats gather at Maynard's shaded Ben Smith Falls landing, giving recreation on the Assabet a small, named place at the water's edge.
Boats gather at the shaded Ben Smith Falls landing on the Assabet in Maynard. The selected postcard was mailed in June 1916 and is preserved by the Maynard Historical Society. Its photographic inset records river recreation at a particular landing, keeping that local name attached to the scene.
The landing makes river recreation part of Maynard's story. Hang it where there is room for a local view, with the story there to share when someone asks about the subject.
