A halftone view of the old Dallas County Court House, a massive Romanesque Revival pile of rough red sandstone with a tall central clock tower and clustered corner turrets, rising above the low commercial blocks of downtown Dallas. Built in 1890-1892 to designs by the firm Orlopp & Kusener, the building was nicknamed "Old Red" and served as the county's courthouse until it was demolished in 1966; a late-20th-century reconstruction now stands on the same site.
Undivided-back era card with a wide white message panel at the right; printed number 5294 above the caption. Light edge and corner wear with a crease along the right margin.
No postmark. Divided-back private postcard with printed directive "Writing on this part of the address side permitted after March 1. 1907" and a 1-cent/2-cent stamp box; publisher imprint Harvey Bros., Dallas, Tex. Light soiling and corner wear; unused.
