RPPC  Wakonda,SD Clay County, horses, dirt streets c. 1910

Sepia-tone Real Photo Postcard looking up Main street in Wakonda, South Dakota, in Clay County about 1910. Both sides of the streets have some very nice vintage autos, and two horse drawn teams are coming up the street.

Some of the great detail is visible in the inset below such as the boys on the corner, and the box of cereal in the window showing Kellogs Toasted Corn Flakes. The brand was introduced in 1906, so this is a very early picture of the product.

An unusual and interesting addition to your South Dakota historical collection.
