About this postcard

A large-letter "Greetings from Indiana" card, with the state name spelled out in oversized outlined capitals, each letter filled with a different Indiana scene: a columned building, a waterfall, a domed government building, rock formations, a tower, and a clock-tower building. Dogwood blossoms appear at lower right and a banjo-playing figure at upper left. Curt Teich's linen large-letter cards were a popular mid-20th-century souvenir format, using the state name as a frame for tourist views.
