About this postcard

A white clubhouse with a green roof sits among palm trees and flower beds at Palma Ceia Golf Club, with umbrellas visible on the grounds. The club was two and a half miles from downtown Tampa and claimed the largest membership of any club on Florida's west coast. Its eighteen-hole championship course had grass greens, and the Gasparilla open national tournament brought leading professionals and amateurs to Tampa each winter.
