About this postcard

The caption identifies this white clapboard farmhouse as Calvin Coolidge's boyhood home in Plymouth, Vermont. A covered porch spans the front, with an attached barn or shed and a large windowed outbuilding at right. Flower beds line the lawn, a few figures stand in the yard, and a wooded hill rises behind the house. Coolidge grew up in Plymouth Notch, a small hill-farming community, and at this homestead his father, a notary, administered the presidential oath to him in 1923.
