Back of picture postcard of The First Christian Church, San Diego, California

 

December 1919

The First Christian Church, San Diego

 

This picture postcard with an image of the church on the picture side appears to have been sent by the church to its members to advertise a "mortgage burning" (meaning the mortgage has been paid off). The card was addressed to someone who did not claim the card, and so the address was changed. The postmark indicates that the card was sent in December of 1919 for the event on December 14.
