#1 An older photo of the hospital layout. A comparison to #3 shows that Units 1, 2 & 3, nurses home,
etc. have not yet been built.
#3 Pre-1955 aerial photo as the men's cottages in the left foreground were not there during my time in the
san. I have labeled what I think I know to be correct.
#5 Old picture of Administration Building.
#5.2 Admin Building with no shrubbery. #5.5 Admin Building with a car at the front door. #7 Admin Building with more ivy on the walls and grown-up trees and shrubbery.
#7.5 Early postcard of Medical Director's Cottage, built in 1916.
#9 Women's East Wing. Photos #9, 10 &11 predate photos #13 & 14.
#11 East Wing and Corridor as seen from the back side of photo #10. #13 Women's East Wing. Sunroom and sun porch additions on the end of the original building built
in 1918. Compare with #9.
#14A San snow scene of East Wing and Corridor taken from same
location as Photo #10. Postcard was mailed in 1915 to Philadelphia apparently by someone on a trip, not a patient.
#14C San snow scene of the Main Corridor. Postcard was
mailed in 1915 to Fairmont, NC apparently by someone on a trip, not a patient.
This view is much the same
as #14A except for the addition of two people in the shot. The snow patterns on the ground are very similar indicating
that both photos were taken at the same time.

#2 The same basic view as #1, but seems to be a hand colored photo and actually quite beautiful considering the
subject. It does show the beautiful setting for the hospital.
#4 A wider aerial view. That's the Power House & Laundry
by itself at the left. The postcard was mailed from the san in March 1940 to Bradford, Pa.
#6 Administration Building, where we first checked in for what was usually, at best, a long stay.
#6.2 Back of #5.2 showing postcard was mailed in 1919. #6.5 Back of #5.5 postcard. #8 I remember seeing the Directors Residence while on meals, but never got very close to it.
#10 Women's East Wing and Corridor. Note the vintage convertable in the driveway at the right. #12 East Wing and Corridor under construction (same view as photo #11). This is the only construction
photo of the san I have been able to find. Mailed in 1912 to Hollidaysburg, Pa.
#14 Women's East Wing. Mailed in 1941 to Yukon, Pa.
#14.5 East Wing Corridor. #14B "The
Road Between The Oaks" which ran by the East Wing. The postcard was mailed by a patient named Lucy to Laquin,
Pa. in 1916.
#14D Nurses Home and Sun Porches of Women's Ward S&Y.
The postcard was mailed on July 18, 1928.
#14G Receiving Wards and Sun Porch |
