Description
Fifth and Broadway in Gary, Indiana, shows a bustling early 20th-century street scene with cars and streetcars. A postcard depicting this view was sent to W. E. Frye in Marion on October 22, 1921. The sender, Chas, writes of spending the day there and leaving the following morning, mentioning work, all in a charming postcard from the 1920s.
