About this postcard
The photograph shows the First Reformed Church in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, a classical-style building with a columned portico, a domed roof, and a square bell tower at the left. Steps lead from the street corner to the entrance. The congregation was founded in 1763, and the caption identifies it as Evangelical and Reformed, the denomination formed in 1934 by the merger of the Reformed Church in the United States and the Evangelical Synod of North America. Carlisle, the seat of Cumberland County, was laid out in 1751 and grew around its courthouse square.
