Kirksville, the seat of Adair County in northeast Missouri, is pictured here through its county courthouse, which housed local government and records for the surrounding farm region. The print was published by the Normal Book Store, a name that reflects the town's long identity as a teacher-training college community. The print is undated and its caption details are unverified, but views like this were often sold locally as souvenirs.
