Wallpaper, three remnants of wallpaper (A), (B), and (C), from the Dowling/Meyers house recovered from under the floor during renovations in 2000. (This house was previously owned by Edith Drury and Sam Chapman and dates to ca. 1840.) Remnant A: (10" L x 5.5" W) the top layer is a beige, textured felt-like daffodil-and-leaf pattern of yellow, red, blue, brown, and green with a striped border piece applied at one edge. One corner lifts up to reveal two earlier layers of wallpaper. The middle (second) layer is yellowish-green with gold lines. The bottom (third) layer is a bright greenish wallpaper pattern on linen backing. (The bottom layer of Remnant A matches Remnant C and the middle layer of Remnant B.) Remnant B: (9.5 L x 3.5" W) is the same as the top layer of Remnant A, and has one sub-layer visible at corner. This sub-layer is a greenish tan pattern of plants on paper with linen backing and matches Remnant C.
