Great White Hurricane Blizzard of 1888 in Liberty Center

The image depicts a winter 1888 historical scene of a snow-covered East Street in Liberty Center, OH. The street is blanketed in deep snow, suggesting a harsh winter or significant snowfall event. Several people are visible, dressed in clothing typical of the early 20th century, likely indicating the time period of the photograph. The snow reaches high up the legs of the individuals, who appear to be navigating through the challenging winter conditions. On the left side of the image, tall utility poles line the street, indicating the presence of telegraph or telephone lines, which were common during that era. In the background, a row of buildings with overhanging roofs can be seen, their facades partially obscured by the snow. On the right, a larger brick building stands prominently, possibly a local business or community establishment.
