Description
Original early Real Photo Postcard (RPPC) featuring Mt. Shasta, California, captioned in white text as “Mt. Shasta, California 80.” This sepia-toned photographic postcard captures the iconic volcanic peak in sharp relief, with a soft brown tone that enhances the antique aesthetic.
Published by Bardell & O’Neil of San Francisco, a noted early 20th-century postcard publisher known for scenic California landscapes, this card features a divided back with an ornate design typical of the Golden Age of Postcards. It was postmarked in 1910 from Santa Barbara, confirming its period of use and making it a documented, mailed example from over 110 years ago.
