Main Street, Looking South

Image

Text on front reads: "Main Street, Looking South, Stoddard, Wis." An unpaved main street with businesses on both sides. On the left is a store with a sign that reads: "Hardware. 5 & 10¢ Store." It has rolled up fencing with various implements and merchandise on the porch. A horse and wagon are hitched in front. The name "Blashek" is hand written on the storefront. More horse-drawn wagons are in the street. On the right men gather on a porch and a dog rests on another porch. Trees and hills are in the distance.
