Color image of the former Northampton Post Office on Pleasant St. The square one-story building has long white windows and two pillars standing around the front door with a light fixture hanging down between them. Roof has an intricate stone lining. To the left of the building is a driveway; the Post Office has a side entrance in the back and two bikes lean against a side railing. A house is seen behind the building. To the right of the Post Office is Armory St, across which a three-story brick building with a sign reading "We Sell Hub Ranges" and a store front window can be seen. Trolley tracks are visible on Pleasant St.
Message on back reads: "From Anna, Brennan, Casey."
Back is addressed to: " Miss Jennie Graves / East Whately / Mass."
