Description
A souvenir postcard printed in the early 20th century by American Art Post Card Co. of Boston, Mass. The black and white photograph on its front depicts the Old Town, Maine Post Office building completed in 1914. A recommended postage cost of one cent indicates the card was produced before 1952. Postcard rates rose to two cents from November 2, 1917-July 1, 1919 and April 15, 1925-July 1, 1928 as well. A production date in the 1930s seems likely.
