A framed colorized photograph under glass of the Crissie Caughlin Ranch House taken from the rear of the property at about where the West Plum Lane hill is today, looking north toward Peavine Mountain. In the foreground is the Last Chance Ditch, surrounded by pasture land. No photographer`s name is visible. The photo measures 13.5 x 63.5 in its original ornate frame. The ranch house was purportedly moved to this location from its original Virginia City site in 1901 [www.generation4boomers.com/winter-2012/article-3.htm]. The photo-colorization technique was developed and became popular in the early years of the century, prior to the advent of color photography. A unique piece of Reno`s history.
