The card shows Market Square in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, lined with three- and four-story brick commercial blocks, storefronts with awnings, utility poles, and a horse-drawn wagon in the street. Signs for Frank W. Knight Shoes and Presto Pharm. are visible. Market Square has long served as Portsmouth's central commercial and civic gathering place, and this view captures its early-20th-century streetscape.
