Divided back of postcard showing photograph of Hotel Balboa, San Diego, California

 

10/16/1907

 

 

This image is of the divided back of the picture postcard showing a full-size photograph of the Hotel Balboa. Despite the printed admonition to write nothing but a return address in the space to the left of the address and a dividing line, a message has been written there, with no return address. There is a postmark and a special cancellation mark, as well as a postage stamp.
