Description: Dakar SENEGAL - Naval Station - Blvd Pinet Laprade - French West Africa - 1916: Dakar is the capital and largest city of Senegal. It is located on the Cap-Vert Peninsula on the Atlantic coast and is the westernmost city on the African mainland. Its position, on the western edge of Africa, is an advantageous departure point for trans-Atlantic and European trade; this fact aided its growth into a major regional port. According to December 31, 2005 official estimates, the city of Dakar proper has a population of 1,030,594, whereas the population of the Dakar metropolitan area is estimated at 2.45 million people. Dakar is a major administrative centre, home to the National Assembly of Senegal and Senegal's President's Palace. This Divided Back Era postcard, showing a horse and wagon travelling the boulevard, has a note on the card's reverse where the writer informs: "At the Naval Station where I dined Jan. 26, 1916." The card is in good condition. Collection Gautron. No. 150.
