Maplecroft Photos from The Herald News

The Fall River Herald News was twice granted access to Maplecroft and they have published the images on their website. They are getting harder to find as the days pass—the images are becoming buried by more recent stories of the city.

Your trusty Lizzie Borden collector has amassed them here and gives the Herald News full credit for the images. Some of the photos are of the “before” variety, when the last owner was still in residence. The second set presented here are much more current and show the transformation of the rooms by the new owner, Kristee Bates.

Kristee brings to Fall River a positive, can-do attitude that reminds me of Rosie the Riveter or Danika Patrick. Full steam ahead!

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
