Summary

Like most small American towns, Montclair has changed dramatically over the last century. Streets have been paved, downtown buildings have been updated, and homes have been altered to suit changing fashions. Preserved here in vintage postcards, the town's legacy lives on in images of Montclair as it was at the turn of the twentieth century. Familiar landmarks of today such as the Montclair Art Museum, the Marlboro Inn, and the Bellevue Theatre are presented here as they originally appeared.
