Greetings from Tobago, B.W.I.

Abstract

Description on back of card: “Main Street Scarborough, with Barclays Bank the only one in Tobago”. Typical commercial buildings and vintage cars line Main Street, Scarborough. A school boy dressed in the usual “boy-school” uniform, blue shirt and short, khaki pants and a lady in a straight dress, known in the 1960s as a shift-dress, are on the pavement at left. A man in a panama hat and long pants rides a bicycle down the centre of the road. There are a few other people walking in the street. The upper floor of the two story building at the right of the photograph might be a residence, as it is decorated in distinctive Caribbean-home style. The veranda has gingerbread-decorated, wooden fretwork in the form of ex. Ferns looking like round balls, hang in wire baskets off the veranda. The bay can be seen in the distance. Postcard number 22516.
