OBJ.N.2023.99.1
Description
Two identical black and white postcards. Their fronts depict The Penobscot River, Old Town, Maine. A building with smokestacks visible in the distance could be Old Town Woolen Mill, later used as a shoe factory and renovated in the 1980s into River House apartments. The cards were printed by American Art Post Card Co. of Boston, Mass. and specify "one cent stamp" to be used for mailing, which indicates they could have been manufactured between 1925 and 1952.
