This vintage real photo occupational postcard features a portrait of more than two dozen construction workers. Many of the men are standing on wooden scaffolding in front of the building. There are no hardhats seen in this industrious group. Their job is not the safest way to earn a living. The image itself is relatively crisp and clear.

This vintage occupational real photo postcard features five construction workers (laborers) posing in their work clothing. Note that two of the men are holding tools and that all but one of the men are wearing work gloves. A couple of the men have dirty faces from their labor. The men are posed in front of, what appears to be, a large pipe. Is the pipe the focus of their work? This card was postmarked in 1911. The postcard was sent to Chicago from El Paso, Texas. The card was produced by a private studio and is nearly certain to be “one of a kind”. This antique postcard is 111 years old. SOLD
