Higginsville, MO street scene - 1910

Althoff and Kopperbrink postcards primarily depict scenes, businesses, and daily life in and around O'Fallon, MO during the early 20th century. This era (roughly 1900-1920s) was the peak of the "postcard craze" in America, and they provide valuable visual documentation of the city's development at a time when local newspapers had few photographs.
