About this postcard

Two anglers in hats and outdoor jackets stand among large boulders in a clear, rushing stream, one on a rock ledge at left and one mid-stream, with dense green and autumn-tinted forest and a mountain ridge behind. The card names the scene as Great Smoky Mountain National Park, the Appalachian park established in 1934 and shared by Tennessee and North Carolina, long promoted for its trout streams and forested trails.
