Angell Street !! (1900)
Finally a postcard with Angell Street on it. This was dated 1909, so probably was phorographed when HPL was a child - maybe 1900? If so, he had just gotten his bicycle for his birthday and was whelling down Angell Street past these houses.
whoosh! did you see him just then?
I don't recall who lived there, but elsewhere on the blog is a full listing of all residences in 1899. The intersection is much the same as it was 100 years ago, as can be seen in the image from Google Maps below. The image pixelated, but it had a neat look, so I kept it. :)
