About this postcard

A white farmhouse with a wraparound porch and two chimneys stands on a grassy rise, surrounded by bare trees, a fence, and several outbuildings. The foreground is a field of dry grass. A handwritten note across the sky advertises the property as "160 acres, Price $5,000," a farm "1 mile from Bogue Chitto." The note gives the acreage and asking price a buyer would need, presenting the place as a rural property for sale. Bogue Chitto is a Choctaw-derived name meaning "big creek," a place name found in several Southern communities.
