Main Street c. 1902
Beeville, Texas

This is a wonderful black and white Divided Back era (1907-15) Main Street type postcard of Beeville, Texas...probably from around 1902. 

There's a cowboy on horseback in the middle of  the unpaved street and it looks like a guy in his union suit standing on the hotel front porch...with his hat on! 

The card has a nice April 27, 1909 Beeville cancellation tied to a green one-cent Franklin stamp, and is addressed to Mrs. L C Mahaffey, Ben Avon, PA, from E. Offutt. The card was published by R. Hammond, Beeville, Texas (No. D-3361).
