RuralDelivery revisits life in small-town America through examining
photographs that were made into postcards in the early twentieth
century. The book features more than two hundred photo postcards that
re-create a time when Union County Pennsylvania, was prosperous,
progressive, and growing, like many other small towns of the era. Most of the photographs have not been reproduced since being issued.
Extensive captions cover issues ranging from photographic techniques to
historical background to rarity. Documentary materials, such as diagrams
from photographic manuals and excerpts from local newspapers, are also
included. Grover Bierly, Nelson Caulkins, Urs. H. Eisenhauer, ... Shields, John C.
Slear, and John D. Swanger are among twenty-six photographers whose
biographies are included.
