This charming hand-colored postcard, postmarked in 1915, offers a tranquil view titled “A Road and Harbor View at Lloyds Neck, Huntington, N.Y.” It captures a serene dirt road gently curving along the wooded shoreline of Lloyd’s Neck, which is part of Lloyd Harbor, a picturesque village located within the town of Huntington, Long Island, New York. On the right, the calm waters of the harbor lap against a small boathouse and dock nestled at the water’s edge, while a wooded hillside rises across the harbor in the distance. Remarkably, over a century later, this very road still exists—and though it is now paved, the view remains largely unchanged. Drivers today can still experience this scenic coastal stretch as they travel down Lloyd’s Neck, making this postcard a fascinating glimpse into the enduring landscape of Long Island’s North Shore. The postcard was published by F. E. Shadbolt of Huntington, N.Y. and printed in Germany. It bears the publisher number No. 3415 and includes a detailed handwritten message addressed to a gentleman in Brooklyn, New York. SOLD
