Main Street
Title : Postcard: Main Street, Edwardsville, IL.
Date : June 24, 1907 postmark
Description : In this view of Main Street, one can see
the IT tracks come in from the right
off Hillsboro Avenue and cross the
Edwardsville, Collinsville & St. Louis
Railway local car tracks on Main Street.
This was done in a dispute of trackage
rights in the street. Madison County
Courthouse is just out of the photo on
the left side of the card directly in
front of the IT tracks on Main Street.
The view is looking north on Main Street
from approximately the corner of Main
Street and St. Louis Street. The card
was published by the Albertype Company
of Brooklyn, New York. The card is "No. 1".
