About this postcard

An open-air pavilion with a thatched roof and rough stone columns stands against a rocky bank above a shallow pool or stream. A wooden bench sits inside the shelter, and lanterns hang from the columns. A utility pole and wooded hills appear in the background. The rustic stone-and-thatch construction fits the early-20th-century taste for park and resort shelters built to look at home in rough natural settings.
