Summary

[edit]
Description

A real-photo postcard of the corner of Elm and Mechanic Streets in Camden, Maine, in 1906. The photograph is captioned with the date and location. The postcard also has an undivided back.

August 30, 1906 was Conway Day. The Conway Memorial Boulder was unveiled during the festivities. There was also a parade.

The photograph shows a crowd of people lined up on the sidewalk. The Carleton, Pascal & Co. building is in the foreground. Every building is draped with bunting and flags. Two women in white dresses are in the middle of the frame, and a man walks aross Elm Street to the left. There appears to be a small crowd gathered around something to the right of the picture, with their backs to the camera.

The writing on the card reads: "Why didn't you send that postal of the football to me have you forgot that postal I give you down to [?] Gilbert sent me one of your picture [?] [Edith?]"

The card is addressed to Miss Ada Cadon, Foxcroft, Maine, and postmarked in Dexter May 17, 1907.
