About this postcard

Waves break in long white lines against the rocky, tree-topped shore at Catawba Cliffs, with Mouse Island visible on the horizon at left. Catawba Island, despite its name, is a peninsula on Lake Erie in Ottawa County, Ohio, long a summer resort area. Mouse Island is a small wooded island just offshore.
