About this postcard

A single figure sits in a small white rowboat on a calm blue lake, with dark trees on both banks and a wooded ridge along the far shore. The printed caption reads "FROM MINERAL WELLS, TEXAS," tying the view to the North Texas resort town known for its mineral-water wells and the Baker Hotel. The lake itself is not named.
