About this postcard

A sepia-toned real photo view of a snow-covered mountain slope rising behind a dense stand of evergreen trees, with deep snow filling the foreground. The view shows Mount McKinley, now Denali, in the Alaska Range; the caption's quoted "King" reflects its status as the highest peak in North America.
