About this postcard

A curving drive lined with tall coconut palms and beds of pink flowers leads toward the Hotel Royal Worth, a large multi-story winter resort building with red tile roofs and a rooftop flag. The hotel stood in West Palm Beach, part of Florida's early-20th-century winter resort boom that drew wealthy northern visitors along the Flagler railroad route. The view is rendered in the bright, hand-tinted style typical of linen-era view cards.
