About this postcard

A tall stone tower of Warwick Castle rises above trees and a curving road, with a low stone wall in the foreground. The caption names it Caesar Tower, built around 1360 to guard the old bridge nearby, with an old dungeon in its base. The sender's note describes a fine crossing on the Europa, the German liner that had taken the Atlantic speed record that spring, and a second day in Holland after time in England.

Amsterdam, July 18 It was awfully nice of you to write me a steamer letter. We had a fine trip over on the Europa & enjoyed our time in England. This is our second day in Holland, which of course is a fascinating place. Eleanor S. Perley
