Besides “The Villages of Scarborough,” in 2011 the Scarborough Leader ran a series of articles titled “Looking Back” about various objects at the Scarborough Historical Society. These articles included the following:
Looking Back

- Board for drying freshly spun will – 2011-08-05
- Bootjack – 2011-05-20

- Looking Back – Ross Road Violin – 2011-04-29
- Looking Back – Ship Model “Delia Chapin” – 2011-07-01
These articles have been compiled and are available in a PDF file: “Clippings – Looking Back – 2011”
While researching these clippings, I found a 10th article regarding custom-built “bog shoes” in the April 22, 2011, edition of the Leader. I’ve included it in the “Clippings – Looking Back – 2011” file.
These articles are also available through the efforts of the Scarborough Public Library through “Advantage Preservation.”
