RPPC Ghost Town Early Rawhide, Nevada Main Street Dirt Road Mining Camp Mineral County CYKO c1908

JC Carter Grocery Store, G & K Drug, Gents Furnishings Dry Goods Boots & Shoes, The Northern, Barrel House

Ghost Town, Mining Town

This is a very rare original RPPC CYKO Postcard of an early Rawhide Nevada Street Scene. Two men are standing near the Barrel House. Otherwise the street is quiet. The buildings and businesses are consistent with other street photos c1908 and it is possible that this might be before the big fire, although I can not find anything to compare it to.

This card was part of a collection of Mary A.Howser Knox

This in an original RPPC in Very Good Condition. This is an UNPOSTED postcard. **There is a very small crease in the bottom right portion of the card, which cannot be seen on the scanned photo. It is in Very Good condition with normal wear for age, which might include: Corners may be a bit blunt or rounded. Almost undetectable crease or bend that does not detract from overall appearance of the picture side. May have writing or postally used on address side, or areas meant for messages.
