Enjoy a glowing summer night this #ThrowbackThursday!
This week’s highlight is a postcard, number 5285, picturing 18th and Farnam streets in Omaha, Nebraska at night in the 1920s, with buildings outlined and illuminated by electric lights. A lit welcome sign spans the street.
This image is owned and published by the Omaha Public Library. The items on the Nebraska Memories archive include early Omaha-related maps dating from 1922 to 1925, as well as over 1,000 postcards and photographs of the Omaha area.
