Miss A. B. Thomas lived in an apartment on Park Avenue in Minneapolis.

In May of 1939, she received a postcard from her friend, Mamie.

Mamie was visiting Sequoia National Forest in California.

The face of the postcard shows a lone auto proceeding on the road through “Giant Forest”.

The car is dwarfed by the towering “Sentinels”, the great trees protected within the National Park.

The postcard was published by the National Parks Company at Sequoia National Park – the style of the postcard suggests it may have been printed a few years earlier.

On the reverse, Mamie praises the “big redwoods”; she exclaims, “Such beauty and grandeur!”

Mamie thanks Miss Thomas for her recent letter and offers condolences at “your friends passing”.

In closing, Mamie offers “love to the girls”, which I assume is a group of female friends.

One hopes that Mamie continued to enjoy her trip and that she returned safely to her home, and that Miss Thomas was pleased by the sight of the beautiful trees.
