The church has a steeple topped with two crosses. The written inscription reads: "After ten years very truly EA Bass." The card was mailed to Rev. C.A. Stockwell, Tillamook, Oregon. Rev. Stockwell had presided over Methodist congregations in Wisconsin prior to moving to Oregon. E.A. Bass was a physician in Montello and was, himself, an amateur photographer. Caption reads: "Methodist Church and Parsonage — Printed by Miss Kaurfmann — Montello, Wis."
