The middle house in this classic postcard is now for sale. The postcard was issued by Asheville Post Card Company in the twenties as part of a series of Kingsport postcards.
I think this postcard is from the 1940s since linen cards were not used prior to about 1930. Also, many of the Kingsport cards from this series were produced during the 1940s. Nevertheless, this is a great image showing an idyllic Kingsport, Tennessee.
