Among the Sky-Scrapers, Tecumseh, Nebr., No. 2

A quiet street scene is presented by the C. E. Yocam Photo Co. as the second view in a series titled Among the Sky-Scrapers. The caption’s gentle joke about Tecumseh’s scale is answered by the solid presence of the Citizens National Bank, a designated federal depository, and telephone poles marching toward the prairie sky. A handwritten message on the reverse confirms this unstated argument for civic dignity, with the sender boasting to a friend about the modern progress of "my old town."
