About this postcard

Waves break in white spray against a rocky, tree-topped shore of Lake Champlain, with open water stretching to a low horizon under a pale pink-and-blue sky. The view is near Burlington, Vermont, then the lake's principal city and a rail and steamboat terminus. Lake Champlain, the long narrow lake between Vermont and New York that extends into Quebec, was a common scenic subject for early twentieth-century postcards.
