Rockford Tower Christmas: 1900
Rockford Tower Christmas 1900 For Christmas 2000 I did this Christmas card with a view of our house and neighborhood visualized as in 1900 based on several old photographs. As printed and mailed, Rockford Tower was not in the picture on the card. A neighbor wanted a print of the picture but with the tower. Rockford Tower was still under construction in 1900, so I extended the image slightly on the left and added the tower with a rooftop crane. I made up this detail without searching for actual construction photos from that time.
