Description

This sepia toned picture postcard features a group of men sitting in what appears to be a tank of water with fabric draped over the tank sides. The handwritten title at the top left corner reads "In the tank crossing the line, USA Utah, 1921." The back of the postcard identifies the item as a postcard and provides indication for correspondence, address, and postage stamp placement.
