Back of postcard for Virginia Beach Hotel

 

 

 

Van Ornum Colorprint Co., Los Angeles, California

This untraveled postcard nevertheless has a message that looks like handwriting but is clearly a promotional note. The logo for Newman Post Card Company appears in the upper right corner, and at the bottom is the promotional message "On the Road of a Thousand Wonders," coined to promote the Coast Line-Shasta Route of the Southern Pacific Railroad.

Dear
Am visiting the Expositions and they are great, but I find there are three big shows on the Coast instead of two - Los Angeles County is all togged out in gala-array Talk about beach and mountain resorts, auto roads, trolley trips & scenery- Say! seeing is believing
Take a tip from me and be sure your ticket reads "Via Los Angeles["]
Sincerely yours,
