MN0965 MELITA - MAIN ST. W. SIDE

MN0965 MELITA - MAIN ST. W. SIDE
Unposted.
Publisher / Photographer: S. and N. (Unusual, I have not encountered this name before,)

A very sharp image of the West side of Melita's Main Street. On the left is" H. Grant & Co." with two dapper bow-tied gents in the doorway. The widows appear to be showcasing garments and fabric. Next door to the right, withtwo Sherwin William paint signs, is Cott & Gibson Hard.Ware. A smaller sign on the shorter white building appears to read "C. Stewart Mercantiles" Near the middle of the row of storefronts, the word "GASOLINE is printed vertically down the side of the building - although no pumping mechanism seems evident. Far down the street, an automobile sits next to a horse & buggy.

The first 20 or so cards in the WPC numbered series, which began at 100, all seem to be of Melita. So the number 110 and the Melita location suggest that this probably comes from that series. The style is also theirs. But who "N" was is definitely a mystery.
