Description

This image is one in a series of postcards from the Reg Near collection. This is a photo of Widder Street facing east. The photo was taken on Widder Street just before the intersection of Widder and Church Street. There are many trees that line the street. Today only some of these trees still stand. When examined closely the bridge for the railway can be seen.

This postcard has been used and there is a postmark on it. However, it was not stamped directly onto the card so only a portion of the postmark is visible. The year on the postmark is 1911.

Notes

Condition: Excellent- The top right corner is worn and fraying and the bottom right corner has two creases. A faint postmark outline can be seen on the center of the image.

Inscriptions
