This image appears to be a black-and-white negative photograph of an old-fashioned streetcar or tram. The streetcar has visible features such as a front number, "5912," and signage on the side advertising a "Third Annual Circus," which is scheduled for September 25 to October 3. The rest of the text on the sign specifies that it is "Bigger than Ever!"

The streetcar is on tracks and surrounded by some buildings in the background, which resemble historical architecture. Its windows and details, such as bars or grating along its sides, are evident. The overall look of the negative image creates an inverted effect, where light areas are dark, and dark areas are light. This style is used for developing photographs in film-based photography.
