Description
The Hotel Abraham Lincoln in Springfield, Illinois, stands tall in this vintage postcard, its brown and tan facade accented by a prominent vertical sign. Cars and pedestrians fill the street below, adding a lively touch to the scene. This Curteich-Chicago “C.T. Art-Colortone” postcard, likely from the 1930s-1950s, is a charming piece of Americana.
