About this postcard

Two stacked views of Elyria, Ohio, school buildings. The upper image shows the large brick Technical High School with a stone base, set behind a lawn and trees. The lower image shows the stone High School partly hidden by heavy tree cover. The pairing reflects the early 20th-century practice of separating vocational and academic secondary education into distinct buildings, a common arrangement in American cities of the period.
