Description
A colorful illustrated view shows the Star-Gables Motel with rows of white gabled units and blue roofs. The scene includes a landscaped drive, trimmed shrubs, and a sign reading Star-Gables Motor Court. The card also shows the motel’s roadside setting and a bright, tidy mid-century roadside appearance. The visible text suggests the 1950s.
