Its time again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

This postcard view shows a very busy day on Whitewater Street around 1920. The street is crowded with horses and wagons traveling to the many repair shops, a farmers mill, or the depot to do business. We can date this photo to around 1920 because Whitewater Street is brick-paved, which did not happen until 1917-18 and because most of the traffic is made up of horses and wagons. Only one automobile is seen (in front of city hall). If you know old cars, can you tell us what year the car was made?

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society Collections.
