A view across a broad blue lake toward a range of snow-streaked mountains, with dark evergreen forest along the far shore and a white railing and roadside pines in the left foreground. The card carries only a generic caption, so the specific lake and range are not identified; the scene is typical of the high mountain-lake views issued for western North American scenery in the mid-twentieth century.
Linen-textured stock with a cream border; printed number 4A-H1098 at lower right, a Curt Teich-style job number. No writing on front.
No postmark; card appears unmailed (no stamp, no cancellation). Divided-back linen-texture card with cream border; handwritten date Aug 11 1945 on message side. Light edge wear.
