A tinted view looking down over a broad lake or reservoir ringed by wooded, rolling hills, with a small building and open field on the far shore and trees framing the foreground. The card names the spot as State Camp at Peekskill, New York, in the Hudson Highlands north of New York City, a region long popular for outings and summer camps reached by the Hudson River railroad lines. The scene is presented in the soft green-and-blue palette typical of early twentieth-century color lithograph view cards.
Image runs to the edges with no white border; printed number '201,826' and the initials 'J.V.' in the lower left corner; light surface spotting in the sky area.
No postmark readable. Divided-back "Famous Post Card" (V & Sons, Throughout the World) by The Valentine & Sons' Publishing Co., Ltd., New York, printed in Great Britain. Address half badly scraped/torn away — no legible handwriting remains; stamp box empty.
