The back of this card carries a legible postmark, an intact cancelled postage stamp, the publisher's logo, and a message and address written in legible black ink. The slogan "on the road of a thousand wonders" here might mean that this area or card was part of a promotional campaign for the Coast Line-Shasta Route of the Southern Pacific from Los Angeles through San Francisco, California, to Portland, Oregon.
