This attractive bird's-eye view depicts this small city located in southern Vermont. Very detailed, individual buildings are displayed and city streets named. A key at bottom lists 26 important buildings in Bennington and 12 in Bennington Centre (the top portion of the image) which is bisected by a passing train on the Lebanon Springs Railroad. The view is decorated by a vignette of the "Graded School Building" at lower left. Published by J.J. Stoner in Madison, Wisconsin and lithographed by Shober & Carqueville in Chicago.
