NORTH FOXBORO MA Postcard Old Railroad Station MASSACHUSETTS Train Tracks RPPC

Description: This Kodak brand real photo postcard (RPPC) shows an old railroad station in North Foxborough, Massachusetts. Train tracks can be seen along the bottom edge of the postcard image. A friendly expert and acquaintance at TylerCityStation.com pointed out to me that this postcard features a photo taken in 1914 by Lewis H. Benton of Taunton, Massachusetts. Benton started taking area photographs (often featured on postcards) in 1910 and continued this pursuit into the mid-1930's. The postcard listed here does not show the early 20th-century caption that was on Benton's original postcard: "Railroad Station at North Foxboro". As explained to me, sometimes the original inscriptions were cut off for aesthetic reasons in later postcard editions. I suspect that this reprint on Kodak paper is from the 1950's or 1960's. After the years the postcard may show some typical wear.
