As indicated by the caption, this image shows the Mackay mansion's billiard room as it appeared in circa 1920.
The caption accompanying this photograph reads as follows:
Circa 1920
The text accompanying this image reads as follows:
The billiard room's Italian Renaissance chimney piece moved to the dining room, while the silver sconces around that room's walls, came here. The panoply of stuffed heads vanished, recalled by but four elk sculls. A portrait of daughter Kay and some majestic Louis XV seat furniture rounded things out.
Another good image of the billiard room from 1902 also has been placed here in the Library.
A poor image of the billiard room from 1906 published in the January 28, 1906 edition of The New York Times also has been placed here in the Library.
See Harbor Hill, Clarence Hungerford Mackay's Mansion.
