EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the Post Office building in Detroit, Michigan, between 1910 and 1920. The image, captured from an elevated viewpoint, showcases the grandeur of the federal building with its towering structure and intricate architectural details. The post office served as a vital communication hub during this era, connecting Detroit and the surrounding areas to the rest of the country. The photograph captures the hustle and bustle of the cityscape, with people going about their daily business at the street corner. The post office's imposing presence dominates the scene, with its tall tower reaching towards the clear blue sky. The building's ornate facade, adorned with columns and intricate patterns, adds to its historic charm. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, a popular photographic technique during the early 20th century. The image's high contrast and sharp details bring out the textures of the building's exterior, transporting us back in time. Detroit, Michigan, was an industrial powerhouse during this period, and the Post Office building was a symbol of the city's progress and modernization. The image is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of the United States and the importance of communication in shaping the country's history. The photograph's creator is unknown, but it is a valuable addition to any collection of vintage Americana or urban landscapes. This image is not to be used for commercial purposes and is for personal use only.
