A shaded dirt road runs straight away from the viewer beneath a dense double arch of willows, their branches meeting overhead to form a green tunnel; a bicycle leans against a trunk on the left verge. The card names the spot as Willow Road in Annisquam, the old fishing village on the northern edge of Gloucester, Massachusetts, a summer resort area on Cape Ann. Such willow-lined lanes were a favorite scenic subject for Cape Ann photographers and postcard publishers in the early 20th century.
