About this postcard

A black-and-white view of a quiet lake narrowing between heavily wooded shores, with a low tree line along the far horizon and leafy branches intruding at the lower right. The card's own caption places the scene at Walker, Minnesota, a small city in Cass County in the state's north-woods lake country, on the shore of Leech Lake. Cards of this plain photographic style were commonly sold as local souvenir views in the mid-twentieth century.
