Name/Title

Lobster Lane, Magnolia, Mass.

Entry/Object ID

1132

Description

Here is one of the best images of the great forking willow that stood in front of Magnolia's 'Oriental Store' and the Women's Club beyond it. Its loss, sometime around the year 1900 can be an aid to dating photographs of the area, and it may be inferred that this postcard was printed several years after the photograph was taken.
