Description

This color postcard features a gothic style church with a bell tower on the left corner. Triple paned arched windows are on each side of the church's facade. The title in the upper left identifies the church as "Methodist Church, Biloxi, Miss." The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard. A green one cent postage stamp is placed in the upper right corner and the card is postmarked Biloxi, Mississippi, August 29, 1910. The card is inscribed and is addressed to Mrs. Callie Lewis in Solitude, North Carolina.
