Swampy’s #Florida Postcards – Bathing on Palm Beach in the early 1920s!
Here’s a postcard, labeled ‘The Bathing Beach’. In the background is the original Breakers building prior to the fire of 1926. The new Breakers building was rebuilt in a very different style of the Renaissance palace, Villa Medici.
The message on the back is very hard to read. Something about a trip for a part of the family and that there are “just 3 of us left, you know.” The card was mailed to Fairmont, Minnesota.
The card was mailed in 1958. Have to wonder why this card sat for 30+ years before finally getting mailed.
This postcard is part of the Swampy’s Florida collection.
