About this postcard

A dirt road curves through open ground toward a stand of golden-yellow aspens in autumn color, backed by dark evergreen forest and a long range of snow-streaked peaks under a clear blue sky. The scene is a generic Western American mountain view of the kind issued in the linen era; no caption or imprint identifies the exact range, though the aspen belt and snowy crests suggest the Colorado Rockies.
