Sand dunes below snow-capped mountains, circa 1960

About this postcard

A color view of rippled sand dunes in the foreground, their crests casting long shadows, rising toward a dark mountain range with snow-streaked peaks under a clear blue sky. The card carries no printed caption or imprint, so the specific dune field is not identified on the scan; the scene resembles the great inland sand sheets found at the foot of high ranges in the American West.
