Description

This postcard features a color illustration of the church on the Tougaloo University campus, a two story building with a gabled roof and a clock tower on the right. Threes are on either side of the church and one is in front, partially obscuring the left corner of the church. The title of the card is printed along the bottom left edge of the card. The back of the card is addressed to Miss Joyce Mattson in Virginia, Minnesota. The card is postmarked Ridgeland, Mississippi, October 17, 1911 and a green, one cent Benjamin Franklin postage stamp is placed in the upper right corner. An inscription is written sideways on the left half of the card. [see transcription field]
