About this postcard

Waves break in white spray against a rocky, pine-topped shore of Lake Champlain, with open water stretching to a low headland under a pale pink-and-blue sky; the card names the scene "Rocks and Waves, Lake Champlain near Burlington, Vt." Lake Champlain, the long lake between Vermont and New York extending into Quebec, was a popular early-20th-century resort and excursion destination, and Burlington on its eastern shore served as the region's principal city and steamboat landing.
