This postcard back carries a message to Mr. and Mrs. John R. Adams from the Rev. and Mrs. H. B. Schultheis handwritten in cursive using blue ink that has faded in a stain on the address side. The postmark is legible, and a return address sticker that obliterates the publisher's name has the names and address of the Schultheises. The stamp is loose; under it are written the names "Jane and Jack." Contact information for the motel is included in the message panel.
