Since the copyright for the postcard was first issued in 1861, people have found that the "small, thin postcard is a quick and inexpensive way to keep in touch with others." Hoosiers love postcards just as much as anyone, and this delightful collection from the Indianapolis Public Library brings the magic of the postcard alive. Here, visitors can look over 500 postcards depicting scenes from around the Circle City and elsewhere. The curious guest can look over cards featuring poetry from James Whitcomb Riley, the Emrichsville Bridge over the White River, and much more. Visitors shouldn't miss the wonderful images of the World War Memorial, Riverside Boulevard, and a host of images related to various cultural institutions downtown.
