Here’s a selection of the conversations happening on these photos & illustrations:

Bartlett's "Franklin" (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

Seuss. said:
Benjamin Franklin as sculpted by Paul Bartlett in 1921 for the town of Waterbury, CT. It was transported from Baltimore to Waterbury in April of that year with many stops and ceremonies along the way. The statue finally made it to Waterbury in May, 1921 and remains there today
swanq said:
Norwich bulletin., May 13, 1921, Page 10, Column 4 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82014086/1921-05-13/ed-... indicates that the statue's tour started on April 9, 1921 in Baltimore. The Washington DC Evening Star. May 18, 1921, Page 2, bottom of column 1 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045462/1921-05-18/ed-... indicates that the statue arrived in Waterbury on May 18, 1921. So this photo was likely taken between those dates.

another view of Printing House Square, from 1916

And an aerial view from 1916, which more clearly shows the 3rd Avenue El, now demolished.
