About this postcard

A tree-shaded village street in Littleton Centre, Massachusetts, with the small gabled public library building standing at the right among tall elms and neighboring houses. Littleton is an old Middlesex County town, and the view captures the compact, elm-lined common-and-centre landscape typical of early-20th-century New England villages. The card was issued by Conant & Co., whose imprint also appears on other Littleton views of the period.
