Description

This postcard features a sepia toned image of the post office and St. Andrew's Church in Jackson, Mississippi. The post office is a three story building with four white columns at the entrance and arched windows. St. Andrew's Church is a white, two story, Gothic style building with a tower on the right corner and arched windows. Trees and electric power line poles line both sides of the street and the back of a horse and buggy are seen on the street just before the post office. "Eyrich and Co., Jackson, Miss." the publisher, is both written and typed on the lower left of the image. "St. Andrew's Church just beyond the post office" is written in blue ink along the bottom of the card. The back of the card is addressed to Miss Orena Duling in Jackson, Mississippi. The card is postmarked Jackson, Mississippi, though the date is not readable. A green, one cent Benjamin Franklin postage stamp is placed in the upper right corner.
