Antique Postcard 1912 Donkey The Narrows Williams Canon CO Green Mountain Falls

Social History: Written to "Dear brother Bill" (Master Wm Hughes) in Lawrence, Kansas. The sender mentions meeting several people from their hometown of Lawrence while on vacation—specifically "The Faiths" and "The Stubbs"—highlighting how popular Colorado was for Kansas residents escaping the summer heat.

Postal History: Features a clear and desirable Green Mountain Falls, Colorado circular date stamp. This small mountain town was a popular summer resort destination in 1912, and clean "town cancels" from this era are highly collectible

Scene: The focal point of this card is the saddled burro (donkey) standing on the dusty trail. These animals were the "engines" of Colorado tourism, carrying visitors up steep mountain passes. This imagery perfectly encapsulates the "Old West" tourism boom of the Edwardian era.
