Image: Ricketts, PA postcard
Description: Postcard of Ricketts, a former lumber town in Sullivan and Wyoming Counties, Pennsylvania, USA. Ricketts was founded in 1890 and abandoned after 1913 when the lumber mill closed (by 1914 the town was down to five families, and the last buildings were demolished in the 1930s). Rail service ended when the mill closed.
