About this postcard

The photograph shows the dining room of the Cliff Cafe in Lanagan, Missouri, with wooden tables and chairs arranged on a bare floor against rough, cave-like rock walls lit by exposed electric bulbs. The printed caption names it "Dining Room, Cliff Cafe, Lanagan - Mo." Lanagan is a small community in McDonald County in southwestern Missouri; the room's rough stone walls and simple furnishings give it a cavern-like atmosphere.
