Bird's-Eye View of Pottsville, 1889 (T. M. Fowler)

An 1889 aerial 'bird's-eye' perspective view of Pottsville drawn by Thaddeus M. Fowler of Morrisville, PA. These artistic panoramas show every street and building in three-quarter perspective, capturing the town at its industrial peak — a vivid companion to the flat Sanborn maps. PHMC mirror: MG-11 #567 (m011_0567_0000_116_pottsville.jpg)

Look for: Pottsville, streetscape, industry, churches.
