Large 1891 Cornell rowing photograph by C.H. Howes.

The photo was taken June 25th, 1891, in New London, CT, when Cornell brakes the world record for an eight-oared 3-mile race with a time of 14 minutes 27½ seconds. The photo has some condition issues, which I will need to address to best preserve, but a very rare original photograph of an historically dominant crew.
