Artifact Overview
Photographic cards like this one, with their glued-on labels, were a preliminary step taken by Dexter Press before producing postcards for small-business owners to mail or hand out to customers. The owner of this tourist stop, located in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, tried to cover all bases -- offering lunch, beer and wine, gasoline and oil, and overnight lodging.
