Description

This black and white picture postcard features several connected storefronts on a street behind a wooden fence. People are seen walking the sidewalk in front of the buildings. The title along the bottom of the card identifies the stores as "Klondyke Hotel, Hotel Weidmann, Henley's Studio, Century Drug Store, Hattiesburg, Miss." The photographer is listed in the lower right corner. An inscription is handwritten beneath the title. The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides publisher information as well as indication for address placement. The postage stamp has been removed and both postmarks are illegible. The card is addressed to Miss Blanche L. Lake in Benwick, Louisiana.
