About this postcard

A palm grove shades picnic tables at Crandon Park on Key Biscayne. People sit at the tables and walk across sandy ground. Crandon Park became a Dade County public park after the Matheson family transferred land on Key Biscayne to the county in 1940. The scene shows the park's early use as a county recreation ground.
