A quite nice and exceedingly scarce item. HISTORY (from assorted internet sites) Flume House & Hotel Vendome, Boston:: According to some records, the Flume House was first known as an inn by the name of  Knight's Tavern. However, Richard Taft purchased the property, and built the first Flume House in 1848. At that time travel to this area was rare.  Bristol was the closest location that could be reached by railroad, and there were only a few small hotels in the area that easily handled the traveling public. Richard Taft was keenly alive to the wonderful beauties of Franconia Notch, and never for a moment wavered in his faith in their attractions. He worked quietly behind the scenes to promote Franconia Notch, and the White Mountains as a tourist destination.When he began hotel keeping at the Flume House, the price of board was $1.50 a day. The entire receipts of his first season were only eighteen hundred dollars, but, as business increased from year to year, Mr. Taft with characteristic enterprise,purchased the Lafayette House, a hotel five miles above, and a tract of land around it, In 1852, with his associates George T. Brown and Ira Coffin, he began the building of the Profile House. This famous hotel was completed and opened to the public in 1853, with a capacity of one hundred and ten rooms, which was increased by a large addition in 1866, the year after Colonel Greenleaf entered the firm. From 1865 to 1869 the proprietors were Taft, Tyler and Greenleaf.  In the latter year Mr. Tyler retired from the firm.  In 1872 extensive additions and improvements, including the great dining-hall, were made by Messrs. Taft and Greenleaf, the new firm. The old Flume House having been burned in 1871, the second hotel was rebuilt in 1872, even grander, erected on the same site, with the two properties being under the same ownership. The first of the group of cottages, which formed such a feature of the Profile House settlement, was built in 1868. In their heyday, 25 coaches loaded every evening and departed every morning from Plymouth. They visited Profile House, and picked up passengers at Flume House, and then reached Plymouth in time to connect with train to Boston. After meeting the northbound train, the coach left for return trip to Profile House. Arriving by 6 pm. The trip was 29 miles one-way. Mr. Taft gradually acquired a title to the vast tract of land extending from the Profile farm in Franconia by Bald mountain through the valley to and beyond the Flume House. Richard Taft was not only the owner of this land, and these two hotels, but also one of the proprietors of the Profile Franklin Notch Railroad, and at his death he was president of the company. In 1918 the Flume House burned down for the final time. It was replaced by a restaurant, then a tourist center. The Profile & Franconia Notch Railroad opened in 1879. It was conceived and constructed in response to the need for swift and safe transportation of wealthy and newly emergent middle class vacationers to the resort hotels of the western slopes of the White Mountains. Entrepreneurs Richard Taft and Charles H. Greenleaf had purchased the Flume House in 1848 and the Lafayette House in 1852, and had built the Profile House in 1853, the same year that the White Mountains Railroad reached Littleton. Following the business model of the day, the White Mountai.
