Over the years, we've featured many, many views and posts about Smith Park. Well, count today's as yet another notch on the old blog's belt. This postcard view of the original pavilion is no older than 1907 yet likely taken between that year and the 1920's if only because of the reference to it as "City Park." I'm not sure when it formally ceased being referred to as "City Park" or "the City Park" though I've seen references as early as 1931 referring to it as the "Elisha D. Smith Park" and the "E.D. Smith Park" in 1935.
