Description
A charming light-yellow post office stands beside a metal bridge in Newcastle, Maine, with a sky of pale blue and fluffy clouds. The bridge itself warns against speeding with a “Three dollars fine” sign. This delightful postcard, published by Geo. W. Morris, Portland, Maine, is likely from the early 20th century.
