Title: Perspective: Postcards from the Past

So you are visiting Naples.

Let's send a postcard to your friends left shivering up north.

Scenes here are not what they may have in mind, but they are postcards nonetheless.

The Naples Historical Society is making its archives available to Arcadia Publishing to market a package of 15 vintage scenes as postcards. They are available at book, drug, hardware and gift stores for $7.99.

The scenes are recycled from two complete books on Naples history put out by Arcadia in 2004 and 2006.

They are sharp versions of historic moments often seen in lesser-quality photos.

Enjoy.

And ask yourself as you check the look of yesteryear: Would you rather be in Naples then or now?
