About this postcard
Two riders on horseback in a dirt paddock, with two girls watching from behind a wooden fence. A long white stable building with a green roof stands in the background under a clear blue sky. Outland's Riding Stables, in Birmingham, Michigan, near Detroit, advertised expert instruction in English riding and jumping for any age, year-round riding, boarding, bridle paths, Sunday morning breakfast rides, and musical drill rides. It claimed the largest indoor ring in the Middle West and kept a restaurant open from morning to evening. In the postwar years, stables like this served suburban Detroit families looking for riding lessons and weekend outings.
