About this postcard

The entrance to Hanscom Park opens along a curving road, with manicured lawns and mature trees framing a large flower bed in the foreground. The formal bedding and drive present the park as a planned public amenity in a growing city. Hanscom Park was one of Omaha's early public parks, and postcard views of landscaped park entrances were common promotional images for growing cities.
