STREET SCENE : FREDERICKSBURG, VIRGINIA : CLASSIC CARS, W T GRANT, WOOLWORTH’S

This lithographic chrome vintage postcard features a street scene in Fredericksburg, Virginia. The card shows Caroline Street, which according to the caption on the reverse of the postcard, is the town’s major retail street. Judging by the classic cars shown on the postcard; this card is likelky from the 1950’s. Note the signs for Peoples Drug Store, W. T. Grant, and Woolworth’s. Other interesting details seen in this image, include two buses and a parked red car. The car has lettering on it’s door. It is difficult to decipher the words on the door but it appears to me that they state “Official Car”. The postcard was published by Curteichcolor and distributed by Cussons, May & Company (Richmond  Virginia). (SOLD)
