DESCRIPTION

Stereograph of the old bandstand in Central Square, Keene New Hampshire.

"In 1869, the old town well in Central Square which had supplied the town with water for many years, was filled in and a bandstand built upon the site. In 1900 a second bandstand replaced the earlier structure. Keene's own band performed there, and among the visiting bands which received enthusiastic welcomes was the U.S. Marine Band, which made an appearance in 1907."
