Description
View of the Chicopee Public Library from Center Street with cars parked in front and people walking downtown. A women in a hat is in the foreground and city hall is on the background. Two library patrons are on the front steps of the library. The back is labeled in pencil "April 1941."
[Given the date, differences in photo paper, and the general era of the vehicles pictured (late 1930s or early 1940s), we believe that this could not have been taken by Gilbert (who died in 1923), although it was donated as part of his photo collection.]
