Who the heck has ever even heard of the Colonial Pleasure Club much less knows exactly where it was located? Lillian Weber Herold once did. So does her direct descendant who has been kind enough to share this latest discovery with us. So will you after you read this post.
I know I have said this before. This is another extremely rare photograph. It has a lot of information on it. The exact location of where the image was captured is known. The year is known. It also provides answers to questions we had earlier during the first round of Lillian Weber Herold collection images. Take a look at the last images in this earlier post.
The Lillian Weber Herold Collection – Part One
And a dog even made it into the picture! Historic images don’t get much better than this one.
Thanks again to the descendant of Lillian Weber Herold for sharing this wonderful bit of her family history with us.

I grew up in Maplewood and am always delighted in your blogs…….the photos from Lillian are amazing!…..keep them coming!
Hey Donna, We’re all in luck because there are more of the Lillian Herold photos coming. Thank you for your very upbeat comment.
Amazing Doug. Now we know what the lettering and meaning was on the roofing of the building in the background of the previous post. C.P.C. Great historical sleuthing!
Thanks, Luke, but the credit goes to the family descendant who has been sharing these images with us. Good to hear from you.
thanks for getting my morning/week off to a laughing start!
Toni, It is my pleasure. This one made my day as well. This is such an unusual photo. We’ll never know what the Colonial Pleasure Club was all about but we can speculate. What is a colonial pleasure anyway? I’m afraid to guess. Good to hear from you. Thanks for your comment.
