About this postcard

A large stone post office with a tall corner tower and an American flag stands at a San Antonio street corner. Horse-drawn wagons and pedestrians fill the street, and utility poles line the sidewalk. The scene places the post office in the everyday traffic of the early 1900s, when horses still moved goods through downtown alongside utility lines.
