Farm buildings with 'This Farm For Sale' sign, circa 1907

About this postcard

A farmyard with a large barn on the left and a smaller shed on the right, divided by a stone wall that runs across the foreground. A sign near the center reads "THIS FARM FOR SALE." Trees stand behind the buildings, and the stone wall continues into the background. The sign turns an ordinary working farm into a record of a property changing hands, a familiar sight in rural areas as families sold land or consolidated farms in the early 20th century.
