About this postcard

The view shows the concrete bathing pool and terraced walls of Twin Springs at Siloam Springs, Arkansas, with stairs and pipe railings stepping down to the water. Siloam Springs grew in the late 19th century as a northwest Arkansas health resort built around its mineral springs, and its spring-fed pools drew summer visitors and bathers. Twin Springs was one of the town's several named springs developed for public use.
