JERSEY CITY IN VINTAGE POSTCARDS - FREE ILLUSTRATED LECTURE BY HISTORIAN CYNTHIA HARRIS At the dawn of the 20th Century there was neither radio nor television. Movies had yet to be invented and the Internet was not even imagined. Aside from books and newspapers seeing foreign countries or even nearby cities could only be done by traveling to them. Then, in the late 19th Century the picture postcard was developed. With it was a chance to see your friend's hometown, school, church, every site that was important. Postcards became so popular that whole stores were devoted to their sale. See Jersey City through the eyes of the camera one hundred years ago. See Dickinson High School in its orignal splendor, cows grazing in Curries Woods, the original PS # 14 with the classic bell on top to signal time for school and more. Cynthia Harris of the New Jersey Room of the Jersey City Free Public Library will present a slide presentation of postcards that were proudly mailed to show off the sender's hometown - Jersey City. It will be held at the Greenville Branch of the Library on May 12, 2009 at 6:30 PM. The Library is located at 1841 Kennedy Boulevard. FREE. No reservation required. For more info contact Cynthia Harris at (201) 547-6961 or charris@jclibrary.org.
