"Hello Old Boy. How you was? Have you been down in the west part of town lately? Good bye. Carl Pickett."
Circa 1911 photochrome (real photo, just colourised after the fact.)

I collect postcards and this type of photo card was really popular. Sometimes issued in sets where the photo story progressed from beginning to conclusion--This could have been the last card to view in a set of 4--There is no indication on the back it was part of a series tho.
Wonder what the attraction was in the"west part of town "of Walkerville??It may have been a regular haunt of Carl & Willis, good buddies in 1911.
Thanks for the information.
There is currently only one set of postcards I want to complete.
It is this series, of which I have two so far:

As for Walkerville, it currently has under 250 citizens. LOL.
Not really a hot spot for tourists.
Next time I go thru my cards I keep an eye open for your wants.
I was just wondering if you've seen the card before/know where I could find more? e-Bay didn't turn them up. Nor did the place I purchased them.
Does the card have a "series" number or name in small letters on the back?
No.
Looks like this:

My other version looks like this:

That there are two different ones tells me it may be a series.
