Description

Black and white, glossy, unused, undated, real-photo postcard view of Main Street in Millburn. Although the postcard is undated and unused, an identical one in the historical society collection has a stamp and cancellation that celebrate Millburn's 1957 centennial. The taller brick building on the left corner of Main and MIllburn was Whelan's drug store and the smaller, light-colored building on the right was Kaiser's drug store. Straight ahead, in the background, is an Esso sign, where the Esso station was (now a town parking lot). There is a very light overall yellowing on both sides of the postcard and a small curved crease on the right front, across the upper level of the Kaiser's building. The corners of the postcard are very slightly bumped.
