In the early 1600s, Native American Indians believed that if you followed the Great Merrimack River north you would find a mountain with a stone face. It would be another two hundred years before settlers Francis Whitcomb and Luke Brooks, part of a Franconia survey crew, officially recorded observing the Old Man, thus entering it into New Hampshire history.
The Old Man of the Mountain's jagged profile was comprised of five granite cliff ledges that hovered nearly 1,200 feet above Profile Lake on Cannon Mountain in New Hampshire. The formation became the state symbol for New Hampshire and was chosen as the representation for the New Hampshire quarter.
What began as a series of geologic occurrences over 20 million years ago, ended within a two-hour period when the Old Man of the Mountain collapsed to the ground on May 3, 2003. The mighty New Hampshire tourist attraction and state emblem lives no more.
Ironically, Old Man of the Mountain pennants, dishes, letter openers, and other items once relegated to the realm of tourist knick-knacks are now highly collectible items.
Nathaniel Hawthorne used the Old Man as inspiration for his short story "The Great Stone Face."

Stuart Brody, president of Showcase Antique Center, Inc., has added real estate agent and auctioneer to his extensive and impressive list of credentials.
"Most people think real estate auctioneering has to do with distressed properties," said Stuart. "That is only one portion of the market. More and more people are turning to real estate auctions to sell their homes or commercial properties. Auction is ideal for inherited property, or when time is of the essence, such as in divorce settlements. Contents may be included in the auction as well."
And the benefits are numerous!
- Auction reduces the time the property is on the market.
- Auction eliminates numerous, unscheduled showings.
- Auction creates competition among buyers - auction prices can exceed the price of a negotiated sale.
- Auction takes the seller out of the negotiation process.
- Seller sets the terms and conditions of the sale.
- Seller knows exactly when the property will sell.
- The buyer pays the commission when a 7% to 10% buyer's premium is used. The high bid plus the buyer's premium becomes the total selling price.
- The seller pays no commission when a property is sold...only marketing costs are charged.
Affiliation: Weichert Realtors
To provide more options for his clients, Stuart affiliated with Weichert Realtors in Auburn, MA as a real estate agent. Now Stuart can conduct negotiated sales for both residential and commercial properties in Massachusetts and Connecticut.
