About

For me, looking at old postcards is like traveling back in time. For a couple years now, I’ve been accumulating old postcards of Rockport, Mass., the town where I live. Through this blog, I will share some of my favorites.

If you have information to share about any of the locations shown in these postcards, please add a comment or send me an e-mail.

      The gentleman in the middle is Charlie Balzarini or “Charlie Back and Forth” as he was named for many trips back and forth from the Cove to Downtown.

    Great images…I’d love to reproduce some of the old quarry images to frame in my office…any ideas on who has rights and how I could acquire them for personal use?

    What a treasure– both the photos and the idea to build this blog. I grew up there, as did my mother father and grandfather. Thank you for a tremendous effort for a tremendous place!
