A sidewalk runs in front of the church and a two story house is visible behind the church.. The title "Methodist Church, Rosedale, Miss." is in the upper left of the card. The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides publisher information as well as indication for correspondence and address placement.

The card is inscribed and is addressed to Mrs. Sam Montgomery in Greenville, Mississippi.
