This is the back of the picture postcard of the palm garden on the terrace of the U. S. Grant Hotel (later The US Grant) in downtown San Diego, California. It carries a seal of the Panama-California Exposition, the logo of the Newman Post Card Co., and the logo of the Van Ornum Colorprint company. It also shows that the hotel used a "Los Angeles Office" via a hand stamp at the top of the postcard. This is an untraveled card.
