Description

This color postcard features people swimming under the moonlight. The title along the top of the card reads "Moonlight Scene at Henderson Point, Pass Christian, Miss. On the Gulf of Mexico." The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides publisher information as well as indication for address and postage stamp placement. A poem in the upper left corner reads "It's a place of golden sunshine, Where the pine trees kiss the sky, And the moon makes silvers shadows on the dream-ships passing by. It's a wonderland of beauty, It's a kingdom by the sea, And the waves are calling, calling To the restless heart of me."
