- Colony kitchen, Homestead, Iowa
- Date
- 1905
- Notes
- Description: Later day copy print of a circa 1905 post card image of a woman in the kitchen of the Homestead Hotel. Legend on the side of the image reads "A Colony Kitchen, Homestead, Iowa." The image is 6 1/4 X 8 1/4. I know from other prints that this was actually the kitchen of the Homestead Hotel, not a kitchen house for the members. This is now Zuber's Hotel in Homestead. For years room was the main dining area of Zuber's restaurant. Lots of nice details in this picture, including a cat perched in the window.

- Little boy (Henry Muesse) feeding a donkey colt from a milk bottle
- Author
- Selzer, Jacob F.

- 1911-05
- Notes
- Description: Photograph printed on post card stock. Photograph is marked "Taken in May 1911 C. Hy. Muesse" on back. Jacob F. Selzer (1888-1917)was the probably photographer. Unusual aspect of this picture is that one of the original log cabins and houses that predated the Amana purchase of Homestead is clearly visible in the background. The cabin and house were demolished not long after - this is one of only two photographs of them that I have seen.
