Description

Sepia postcard from sample book of Herbert Berniss Thrasher (1884-1927), photographer. Titled: ‘Looking West from Post Office, Worthington, Mass.‘ We have duplicate copies of this postcard from other sources.

Thrasher was the son of George M. and Hattie Lyman Thrasher. Guy Thrasher was his brother. The sample book was produced during the 1920s when H. B. Thrasher was living and working in Florida. The images are undated but are probably quite a bit earlier, ca. 1910-1915 or so.

Shows sidewalk to the left and a horse-drawn carriage in the road, utility pole and Jonathan Woodbridge House far right. Buffington Hill Road paved.
