This postcard was mailed 110 years ago today — Aug. 14, 1908. It depicts a scene looking northeast on Third Street at about 24th Avenue West. The church steeple in the right foreground is Bethany Lutheran Church, built in 1903.
The image below, from Aug. 13, 2018, attempts to replicate the scene.
The weather might be a little better 110 years later. The sender of the old postcard, someone named Edward, had a “fine trip,” but notes it was “cold and rainy here.”
