Image ID: WPC 02:159
Color postcard showing a view of Main Street in Florence, Mass. Cars that appear to be from the early 1920s are shown driving along the street, along with a horse and carriage. Trees along far side of street are green and fully leaved, suggesting it is summertime.
Back of postcard has been scribbled on in parts, but looks like it reads: "Watertown, Mass. 9/8/21 I am here at Lena's (Lara's?) I find that my plans must be slightly changed so that I will go from here to your place tomorrow afternoon. I don't know just what time I will reach there so don't bother to try to meet me. Hastily -----, Fred" Addressed to Miss Lena Pratt, 1323 Water Street, Rockland, Mass.
Back has type that reads "Pub[lished] by J[ohn] W. Bird, Florence, Mass."
