Description: Postcard: Northwest corner, East Side Square, Bloomington, 1910 postmark Description: Caption: "Northwest from East Side Square, Bloomington, Ill." Also on front: "1889 S. H. Knox & Co." The "1889" is almost certainly a catalog number, as is seen on many other postcards from the same era. Store Web page states, "postcard, used, postmarked Hudson, Ill. 1910, has a little soiling along the top" Source: eBay store Web page http://cgi.ebay.com/Northwest-from-East-Side-Square-Bloomington-Ill-1910_W0QQitemZ180166008086QQihZ008QQcategoryZ20207QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem The postcard states that this picture is 1889. I believe this may be correct, as there was a fire that burned down much of the old downtown in about 1900. Perhaps this was the architect's rendering of the new plans?
