Likely early 1950s. The car looks very similar to a 1950 Lincoln (although I don't think it is...but the body-style would be early 1950s), and the SR 219 sign is different from the photo of a PA sign in 1948 that I found. The car doesn't look "old" though, so my guess would be 1950-1955.

Interesting...

Somebody had enough money to buy them, tear them down, and rebuild something in their place.

It really is a shame that historical places are destroyed. There are too many future-minded, quick-thinking, money-hungry people in the world who can't see the historical significance in things. Does anyone realize that once it is gone, it cannot be brought back? I agree that there are places that are in bad shape. They need a facelift!! It's so much easier for people to just eliminate history and build for the future. I hate seeing history destroyed unnecessarily. Case in point...renovate Yankee Stadium!!

The postcard link is great!! I have only made it through the first two pages, but I can't wait to see the rest!! I really enjoy looking at old photographs, especially of the DuBois area. Thanks!!
