EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Wichita, Kansas in the 1870s. The hand-colored woodcut beautifully captures the essence of this vibrant American city during its early years. As we gaze upon Main Street, we are transported to a time when horse-drawn wagons and covered wagons were the primary modes of transportation. The image showcases a thriving business district with shops lining both sides of the street. The boardwalk is filled with people going about their daily activities, creating a lively and busy atmosphere. This snapshot from history reminds us of Wichita's rich heritage as a frontier town that played an integral role in shaping America's westward expansion. The illustration evokes feelings of nostalgia as it portrays a bygone era where commerce thrived amidst traditional storefronts. It serves as a visual testament to the resilience and entrepreneurial spirit that defined this Midwestern city even in its earliest days. As we admire this vintage artwork, let us appreciate how far Wichita has come since those pioneering times while also cherishing its historical significance within North America's United States. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into our nation's past and invites us to reflect on the progress made over centuries while honoring our roots in this dynamic part of Middle West history.
