This is an old #rppc #postcard that I bought at a shop in #Schenectady a couple of years back. Fascinated with it but never sure just what to do with it. It's a real photo postcard showing "Dick on Mohawk River at Schenectady in 1917 while working in G.E."
General Electric's main plant was very close to the #MohawkRiver, and I can attest that even decades later, the river was subject to some mighty freezes.

On my #Localhistory blog, I explore some of the history of the 1730 building that houses the cutest little library in the world (in my estimation), and one of the places that fundamentally shaped me. Here's the story of Scotia, NY's Abraham Glen house:

My great great aunt's house in West Glenville, NY, where I spent many summer days in the 1960s and '70s. While it had electricity, it did not have indoor plumbing. We had to draw water from the pump in this picture – drawn through shale, it was quite tasty (though the rag on the spout is to catch rust from the mechanism). After she died in 1985, the house was modernized and is not recognizable anymore.

Downtown #Schenectady NY, probably autumn 1977. A dreary day in what was then a dreary place, even though I loved it. The Proctor's Theatre on the left has survived and expanded, the old local department store hung on into the early '90s, everything else has changed. The buildings are mostly still there, and renovated. Looking at this I mostly remember how bad the air quality was.

The first college radio broadcast, in 1920, was under the personal call letters of Wendell W. King, a Black Union College student, the chief engineer and an avid amateur radio hobbyist from the age of 12.
WRUC did an excellent job telling his story, including the race-based discrimination he faced at #Schenectady General Electric. You can read it here:

Writing about the Mohawk National Bank's great wig giveaway of 1970 made me dig into the history of the bank itself, which was established in 1807 as one of New York State's first four banks. It had about a 195-year run, then was merged into the usual non-local banking conglomeration.
Much more, including instructions on how to use the sidewalk teller, at the link:

My latest #LocalHistory post features some ephemera from one of #Schenectady's longest-lasting and well-loved local department stores, The Carl Company. It first opened in Medina in 1891 but moved close to the #ErieCanal in Schenectady in 1906. It expanded into suburban stores in the '60s, and lasted until 1991. Featured on the blog are some of the books into which shoppers pasted Gold Bond Dividend stamps for discounts:

On my local history blog, getting back to posting about whatever catches my eye. In this case, that's the story of Schenectady's Evan Richards, a Nott Terrace High School student who in 1946 won the Kodak National High School Photo Contest with a shot of a Freihofer's horse and bread wagon.
Not big history, but an interesting story.
