Description

This postcard features a sepia toned image a two story courthouse. Arched brick columns line the bottom floor entrance and traditional columns line the second floor balcony. The title beneath the image does not identify where the courthouse is located. An inscription along the top of the card reads "Sick in bed. Will write tomorrow. MC" The back of the card is addressed to Miss Eva Perkins in Owatonna, Minnesota. The card is postmarked twice: Jackson, Miss. April 5, 1907 and Owatonna, Minn. April 8, 1907. A green, one cent Benjamin Franklin postage stamp is in the upper right corner of the card.
