This week's "Turnback Tuesday" features a festive, holiday-themed photo of downtown Derby, looking east on Main Street and taken near the Elizabeth Street intersection.
The first break between buildings on the left is Minerva Street and off in the distance, you can see the Farrel-Birmingham Co. building. To the right is approximately where Woolworth's was located.
This photo is thought to be circa the 1940s. Our utmost thanks to local historian Rob Novak for providing this unique photo and information.
Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
