A sepia-toned view down the wide, unpaved main street of a small town, with two- and three-story brick and frame commercial buildings lining both sides. Early automobiles and a few horse-drawn rigs are parked along the curbs, and utility poles with wires run down the street toward a distant tree and building at the vanishing point.
White border on all sides; sepia-toned printed photo with visible grain. Faint vertical publisher imprint along the left edge, only partly legible. Light surface wear and a faint diagonal mark in the upper right sky.
No postmark. Divided-back Albertype card with white border, ca. 1910s-1920s; blank and unwritten, no message or address. Light soiling on back.
