Midway between New York City and Philadelphia, we’ve long called Hopewell and Princeton home; here are some vintage postcards from our collection — with nod to Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town”, first performed at Princeton’s McCarter Theatre on January 22, 1938.

A note for collectors: While we much appreciate the charm of well-worn ephemera, we instead decided to show these postcards as closer-to-new; we’ve done photo-restoration to most of these images, also taking a measure of artistic license with some.
