With its remarkable coastline, deep-green forest, and rolling landscape, Maine has been a favorite place for visitors for over a century. During the late 1800s, trains and steamboats brought visitors to every corner of the state. Over the last century, tourism has grown into Maine’s largest industry.

Artifact
Lacrosse Stick
Maine State Museum, Artifact

Pair of lacrosse sticks -- one left-handed, the other right-handed. Sticks appear to be little used. Size is slightly smaller than reported Penobscot lengths, though stick heads are proportioned similarly to other northeastern Indian sticks. Length may indicate their intended use by women or children but may also be simply a function of Maliseet (previously spelled Malecite) lacrosse style. Was loan 81.1.1.

Ragged Lake, Maine
Maine Historical Society, Still Image

John Hall and Herbert Washington in a canoe on Ragged Lake, Maine. A trophy Maine whitetail buck is transported by canoe back to camp following a successful hunt at Ragged Lake, Maine in the late summer of 1887. The remote, rugged terrain, trophy brook trout, and abundant game had made Ragged Lake a favorite destination of John Dunn and his hunting companions from the early 1880s to the early 1900s. A trip to this remote lake would require a day or more of travel by horse and canoe from Moosehead Lake.
