This is the message and address portions of a hand-tinted picture postcard of an aerial view of San Diego and San Diego Bay. The stamp has been cancelled, and the date has been taken from the leftmost postmark. As can be seen, the address was corrected, and the date "Dec 24 1911" appears as another date, possibly the date of correction.
