Description

This image is one in a series of postcards from the Reg Near collection. This is a coloured image of the front of the Westover house. The image is a close up of the front porch as well as the front of the left section of the building. Notice that there are three pillars on the front porch, two at the front and one on the back left corner. At the top of each pillar there is a decorative design. The large wooden door has a stained glass window in the center. This image highlights the detail of the ginger breading along the roof line. This image of Westover is likely from the early 20th century.

Notes

Condition: Excellent- dark marks on the bottom left and right corners of the mat of the postcard.
