Description
This postcard features a color illustration of the Church of the Redeemer in Biloxi, Mississippi, a one story building with a short bell tower with a cross at the peak and a gabled roof. Trees draped with Spanish moss are on the lawn in front of the church. The title at the upper right corner of the card identifies the church and states that Jefferson Davis was a vestryman of the church. A dated, March 3, 1948, is written along the bottom of the card. A description of the church's location and Davis's membership is printed in the upper left corner on the back of the card.
