About this postcard

The card is captioned “Scene in Washington Park, Sandusky, Ohio,” and shows a landscaped park with mature shade trees, curving walks, beds of pink and red flowers, and a tall column monument at right; a white building is visible through the trees at left. Washington Park is a public park in downtown Sandusky, a Lake Erie port city in northern Ohio. The linen-era white-border format and the park’s formal flower beds suggest a mid-20th-century view.
