Description: $1 flat for the first 4 cards, plus $0.33 for each additional postcard, unless specified otherwise. This antique postcard features a bustling view of Lincoln Square in Decatur, Illinois, during the early 1900s. The scene captures the essence of a lively town square with pedestrians, streetcars, and horse-drawn carriages. Prominent in the image is the Arcade Building on the left, with its bold signage, and various other historic buildings lining the square. The detailed black-and-white photograph provides a nostalgic look into the early 20th-century urban life, complete with storefronts and architectural details. The reverse side of the postcard is unused, with a divided back design, allowing space for a message and an address. Published by Paul R. Vogel Co., Chicago, this postcard is part of a series numbered 1368 and is labeled "Phototette," indicating a photographic print. The absence of a postmark or handwritten message makes it an excellent piece for collectors interested in pristine vintage postcards.
