Description

This color postcard features a shell road running alongside a streetcar track by the water. A tree stands between the road and the railroad and more trees are between the streetcar track and the coast. A streetcar is on the tracks in the distance. Piers and boats are in the water and buildings are on the opposite side of the road. The title along the bottom left identifies the image as "Back Bay Shell Road, Biloxi, Miss."
