Description |
Gelatin print mounted on gray album page of Main Street between Waugoo and Otter. Candid outdoor view taken of the east side of Main Street looking south from Waugoo Avenue toward Otter Avenue. A large crowd of mostly women are gathered around several street cars of the Citizen's Traction Company. In 1897 the Citizens' Traction Company purchased the street car line in Oshkosh, which began using electric cars the same year. This image may have been taken during the opening ceremonies. |
