About this postcard

A snowy farm lane framed by bare, snow-laden trees, with a rustic rail fence running along the right and low farm buildings visible through the branches in the background. The card's own caption names it simply "The Farm in Winter," a typical seasonal rural view of the sort widely issued in the early 20th century, when winter scenes of New England and Midwestern farmsteads were popular postcard subjects.
