About this postcard

The card shows a costumed Little Red Riding Hood holding a basket and facing a wolf in a rocky, fern-filled garden setting, captioned "Little Red Riding Hood, Rock City Gardens, Lookout Mt." Rock City Gardens opened in 1932 on Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga and became known for its rock formations, gardens, and storybook attractions. This scene appears to be one of the attraction's fairy-tale tableaux.
