About this postcard

A black-and-white view of the IBM Homestead, a long two-story dark brick building with white-trimmed windows, a tiled roof, and a small balcony, framed by large shade trees. A group of men, women, and children stands and sits on the lawn in front of the entrance. The printed caption identifies the house as a residence for Endicott guests of International Business Machines Corporation, overlooking the upper Susquehanna Valley.
