The front yard features two large bushes flanking the front walkway. The title in the upper left reads "A Residence, Meridian, Miss." The back of the postcard identifies the item as postcard and provides publisher information as well as indication for correspondence and address placement. The upper right corner is damaged where the postage stamp was removed. The card is postmarked Meridian, Mississippi, October 3, 1910. The card is inscribed and is addressed to Miss Mame Bergey in Telford, Pennsylvania.
