    Description

    Antique advertising mirror. Neversink Mountain Hotel of Reading, PA.
    This hotel burned down in 1905, so you can date this back to pre-1905
    Overall very good condition for its age.
    Measures about 2 3/4 inches across.
    The Neversink Mountain Hotel was destroyed by fire on September 29, 1905. The fire started in the basement and spread so rapidly that within 10 minutes the entire building was in flames. Three strangers were said to have been seen walking through the woods when the flames first broke out. The fire evidently started on the porch outside at both ends of the structure and broke into the building. Only the stone walls of the basement story and the brick wall on the north and the tall brick chimney in the center of the hotel remained.
