Eli Whitney School
Bring a little Westborough home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
Between opening a book and making a few notes, a small display can give the eye somewhere else to go. The columned entrance of Westborough's Eli Whitney School gives a local place of education a recognizable face in this historical street view.
A postcard copyrighted in 1907 records Westborough's Eli Whitney School and its columned entrance. The building's facade gives the scene its identity. Preserved through a published view, it belongs to the town's educational history and the everyday places represented in this collection.
The school brings Westborough's educational history into daily surroundings, a named building to share with someone interested in the town's community places. Make room beside the pen cup or books, keeping the small display within reach of an ordinary day's work at home.
