A full moon rises over a broad northern lake, its light laying a golden path across the water, with dark evergreen silhouettes framing the foreground and a tall pine at the right. The card is a "Greetings from" view of Rhinelander, a city in Oneida County in Wisconsin's North Woods lake country, a region long promoted for its fishing, resorts and summer vacations. The scene is a generic moonlight view rather than a specific identifiable shoreline.
White border; visible linen (crosshatch) texture; production codes S-358 and 4A-H226 printed in the margins.
No postmark. Linen-texture Curteich "C.T. Art-Colortone" back with white border; pencil price "1.00" at top and a pencil name at right, otherwise unused.
