Description

A faded sepia toned photograph of the first school in Magee, Mississippi is featured on this postcard. The school is a white, two story, clapboard building with a covered front porch, a second floor balcony, and a bell tower in the front center of the roof. A group of people in late nineteenth century clothing are pictured seated on the lawn in front of the school building. The location of the school is written on the back of the card and the teacher is identified as Mary McKenzie.
