A Barker Block blue-green-yellow-brown souvenir postcard depicting the Barker Block at Main and Central Streets. On the corner lot is a large, yellow, three story building with a square cupola atop, and a single chimney is visible. At the time of the photo it was the Boston Clothing Company. A two story, store front duplex is in the space to the left of the department store, where the Goodwin Library stands now.. The First Congregational Church stands in the background, left. The beloved metal fountain is in the original location dividing Central Street from Main in the middle, foreground.

The 1910 fire destroyed the Barker Block as well as the adjoining E. T. Wilson Block. The W.F. Thayer block was also severely damaged in that fire.
