Description: Postcard depicting "South Wilton Station" in Wilton, postmark 1906; the card is an "undivided-back" style postcard of a kind published between 1901 to 1907 when U.S. postal regulations demanded an entire side be devoted to the address & stamp. There is no "South Wilton" station at this time, although there is a Wilton on the Danbury Branch of the New Haven Line. Message written on the bottom states: "dear Garcia / I have been in Wilton since Sunday week and will not go home / for another week. Love, Martha" The postmark, which can be seen on the front, indicates the card was mailed to "Brooklyn, NY"
