#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Winter Downtown c. 1910

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. This month we are featuring winter photos taken by local amateur photographer Andrew Scholl between c. 1895 and 1910. Over 400 glass plate negatives taken by Scholl are in the historical society’s collections.

This week’s image is a rare one showing the full western block of the north side of Center Street. Taken during the winter, it features a real “one horse open sleigh” in the foreground. And note the two gentlemen in their heavy fur coats to the right of the picture.

Join us next week for another winter Scholl image.
