About this postcard

A tall, light-colored stone or brick office block of about ten stories rises at a street corner, its ground floor framed by columns around the entrance, with a red brick building at left and a street receding to the right. The card names it the Peoples National Bank Building in Lynchburg, Virginia, a commercial landmark of the city's early-20th-century downtown. The rendering is a typical tinted view of the period, with a few pedestrians and a horse-drawn vehicle on the pavement below.
