Tents were part of Avalon's housing for many years, called "Bungalettes" in the 1920s. The publisher's number is 13199, which, according to the Metropolitan Postcard Club of New York City, would have been manufactured sometime between 1909 and 1910 (13000 to 13999). This differs from the postmark of 1916 on the back.
