Description
Explore Chicago’s Monroe Street, with its impressive skyscraper and charming buildings, as seen on this vintage postcard. The view west from State Street offers a glimpse into the city’s early 20th-century architecture. This beautiful, colorized postcard, mailed in 1911, promises a “complete lie-good time” from the markets of the world, according to the sender.
