Back of picture postcard showing Hotel Knickerbocker, San Diego, California
Hotel Knickerbocker, San Diego, California
The divided back of this postcard probably means that it was produced after March 1907, when postal regulations changed to allow a message area on the back. The message appears to be an individually typewritten message meant to be sent to prospective or past patrons of the Hotel Knickerbocker. There is what appears to be an erasure under the word "visit" in the last line of the message.
