Description
This black and white postcard features a giant live oak tree draped with Spanish moss standing in front of a large white two story house. The house has white columns along the front porch and a second floor balcony. Bushes line the front of the house. Two Adirondack chairs are placed in the front lawn near the live oak. The title in white along the bottom of the card identifies the scene as "Giant Live Oak Tree Community House, Biloxi, Miss." The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides indication for correspondence, address, and postage stamp placement.
