Description

A sepia toned image of the storefronts and businesses on Oak Street in Laurel, Mississippi, is featured on this postcard. People, horses, and automobiles are pictured on the side of the street and lampposts and utility poles line the sidewalks. Signs for restaurants and other businesses are visible and a streetcar is pictured in the street. The title of the card is written in white along the bottom right edge of the card. An illegible postmark is on the back of the card beside a green, one cent, George Washinton postage stamp and the note written on the left half of the card is illegible due to damage to the back of the card.
