Description: $1 flat for the first 4 cards, plus $0.33 for each additional postcard, unless specified otherwise. This vintage postcard captures a scenic view along the Lehigh Valley Railroad (L.V.R.R.), with tracks curving alongside the Lehigh River near Slatington, Pennsylvania. The image shows a rugged rocky hillside on one side and the tranquil river on the other, representing the natural beauty of the region during the early 20th century. The card features the L.V.R.R. logo and is part of a series produced by The Hugh C. Leighton Co., well-known for their early postcard productions. The reverse side is postmarked September 20, 1909, from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, with a 1-cent Benjamin Franklin stamp. The handwritten message is addressed to Miss Nora Wiley in Allegan, Michigan, and discusses travel plans and the beauty of the region. The postcard was printed in Germany, a mark of the high-quality lithographic process typical of the era. The card is in good condition, with some light wear on the edges and corners, but no major creases. The colors are still vibrant, and the postcard remains a charming piece of railroad and regional history. See pics for detail, and feel free to ask for more if needed.
