This image is a historical document titled "Public Baths in the United States." It includes text as well as photographs documenting two public bathhouses in Buffalo, New York.

  1. Text Content:

    • The upper section (marked with "C") describes Bath-house No. 1, located in Precinct No. 11, which served a predominantly Italian tenement district. The text details the building's structure, amenities, usage, and cost analysis. It mentions the number of baths available (21 baths total) and outlines the cost efficiency, calculating an average rate of roughly 2.8 cents per bath.
    • The lower section (marked with "D") describes Bath-house No. 2, built in 1899 in the Polish quarter of Buffalo. It outlines the site acquisition, construction costs ($19,002.19), and operational details, including the separation of bath facilities by gender. This bathhouse also aimed to provide services free of charge without additional fees for soap, attendants, or towels.
  2. Photographs:

    • The top photograph corresponds to Bath-house No. 1 (marked "C"). It shows a two-story brick building with arched doors and windows. A few people are visible in front of the building, providing a sense of scale.
    • The bottom photograph corresponds to Bath-house No. 2 (marked "D"). It depicts a larger, architecturally distinctive building with steep, gabled roofs. The design is visually more elaborate compared to Bath-house No. 1. People are visible near the entrance in a snowy setting.

This document provides both textual and visual insight into the design, construction, and operation of public bathhouses in Buffalo in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

    • It contains 21 baths in total, with a wash-room containing three concrete laundry tubs and a patent drying closet.
    • The photograph labeled "C" shows this bathhouse, a brick building with arched windows and a simple, utilitarian design.
  2. Section D:

    • This section describes the construction of another bathhouse on the east side of Buffalo, in the Polish quarter. The bathhouse opened on January 1, 1901.
    • Built on land purchased from specific owners, the total cost for the site was $19,002.10.
    • This bathhouse contains 18 rain baths and one Turkish bath and is divided into two separate departments for men and women.

The image shows two public bath houses in the United States. The first image depicts a brick, two-story building with living apartments on the upper floor and bath facilities on the ground floor, including individual bathing rooms and a large open space with multiple bathing stations. The second image shows a larger, wooden bath house with an ornate, gabled roof structure. Both images provide architectural details and descriptions of the facilities and services offered at these public bath houses, which were an important part of urban infrastructure in the late 19th and early 20th centuries before widespread adoption of private bathing facilities.

This image appears to be a historical document page about public baths in the United States, featuring both text and photographs. It contains:

  1. A text section (labeled "a.") describing details about a bath-house in Precinct No. 1, including its construction, facilities, and costs. The text mentions it was built in an Italian tenement district and provided various bathing facilities including rain baths and a laundry area.

  2. Another text section (labeled "b.") describing a second bath-house built in 1899 in a Polish quarter, with details about its cost and facilities.

  3. Two black and white photographs:

  • One (labeled "C.") shows a brick building with arched entrances, appearing to be one of the bath-houses described. It's a two-story structure with ornate architectural details.
  • The other (labeled "D.") shows what appears to be a different bath-house with a more rustic, chalet-style design featuring multiple dormer windows on its roof. There appears to be snow on the ground in this image.

The document appears to be from the early 1900s and provides interesting historical information about public bathing facilities in what seems to be an urban American setting.
