About this postcard

The Olympia Bath House is shown behind a lawn and flower bed, a two-story brick building with a tall columned portico, side porches, and arched openings at street level. A single chair sits on the walk near the entrance, and large shade trees frame the front. The printed caption names Mount Clemens the Bath City of America, a nod to the mineral bath resorts that drew visitors to the town. The Olympia was one of the local bathhouses where guests took mineral baths.
