Description

This color postcard features a three and four story split level brick building with a line of Evergreen Camphor trees at the sidewalk in front, partially obscuring the view of the building. A confederate monument is partially visible on the left side of the building. Four early twentieth century cars are parked on the street in front of the building. The title in the upper left identifies the building as "Harrison County Court House, Gulfport, Miss.--1" The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides publisher and artist information as well as indication for postage stamp placement. A description in the upper left reads "View of the Harrison county Court House, built in 1917, N. W. Overstreet architect, showing the Confederate Monument, Evergreen Camphor trees, and the "White Way" along 24th Street."
