These two old postcards, which are a bit different from ones I’ve seen before, are courtesy of my brother Al’s collection.
They’re a bit tricky to date. The Horicon was in service from 1877 to 1911 and the picture of the shoreline has people in it. Judging from their attire, I would guess, the bottom one dates from about the late 1800’s.
What a good way to start the New Year, by looking at some scenes from long ago. (Click to see full-scale.)
