Old postcards from the early 20th century, compared to the same view shown on Google Street View today. The postcards come from my own collection. Almost all of them are from England, mainly showing West London, Middlesex, Surrey, Berks and Bucks. Click on the postcards to see enlarged versions. Street View images are the copyright of Google. Comments, questions or requests are welcome. If you repost my images on other websites (such as Facebook) please include a link to my original post.

Guildford, Surrey, Joseph's Road c1912
Guildford, Surrey, Joseph's Road c1912. It is very pleasing to see that this view has hardly changed at all in the last hundred years. Postcard published by W. H. Applebee.
I would have kept the little stone fences instead of the pickets, just in case some wayward car tried to make its way into my living room.
