Postcards
represent yet another media that enables us to visualize,
and remember, the past.
Knowing
the value that such cards possess in documenting Baton Rouge's
past, I have searched the Internet, but have found only
a handful of small collections with only a few cards in
each. While there are no doubt larger physical private
collections,
I was not able to locate a substantial "virtual" collection
easily accessible to everyone.
Thus,
this section attempts to build a more complete collection
depicting the architecture of Baton Rouge during the first
50-60 years of the 20th Century. It is hoped that its
availability will provide another media contributing to
the enjoyment and edification of those
of you with Baton Rouge connections.
