1 photograph : print ; 9 x 14 cm (postcard format)

Real-photo postcard with image of the Land O'Lakes Creamery in Frederic, Wisconsin. The creamery is a brick building, built in the 1920s by the Frederic Cooperative Creamery. Outside the creamery is a 1936 or '37 Chevrolet Master car on the left and a 1936 Chevrolet stake truck on the right. The truck is used, and has what looks to be an NRA Blue Eagle in the front windshield, showing support for the New Deal's National Recovery Administration. Multiple young men of military age who have not gone off to war, indicate the image is pre-1942. Printed on verso: "All Rights Reserved.--A. Pearson Co., Minneapolis, Minn." Printed on EKC paper (this stamp box design used 1930-1950). Unused.

Corners somewhat dog-eared; several creases on lower half of the image
