Halcotville-in-the-Catskills, N.Y. Birdeye View, Village & Wawaka Lake
Via eBay I purchased this postcard - a person put numbers on the front of card with description of places on the back. I edited the postcard and made the numbers bolder in white leaving original numbers in place. I did my best to interpret the handwriting leaving the transcription as the original on the postcard. --Tamara Sanford, May 23, 2003
Written on the back is as follows:
Halcottsville May 5th 1909
