About this postcard

Sacred Heart Church rises above a lawn and trees, its Gothic Revival front dominated by a tall central spire topped with a cross. The view sets the church against a blue sky with clouds. St. Marys, a city in Pennsylvania's Elk County, was shaped by German Catholic settlement, and the church's spire made it a local landmark.
