Bare trees stand in front of the building and an empty flower bed is in the center of the sidewalk leading up to the building. The title in the upper right corner identifies the building as "Lyceum Building, University of Mississippi, Oxford, Miss." 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 Miss Alice Barrett in Webster Groves, Missouri.
