Swampy's Florida

Here’s the Esther Williams swimming pool that once was part of Cypress Gardens in Winter Haven. The postcard scene if from the Esther Williams film ‘Easy to Love’, also starring Van Johnson and Tony Martin.

The postcard was mailed June 17th, 1961 to Miss Harriet Jane Zimmerman in Wheeling, West Virginia. This was mailed from Washington, just not sure if it is D.C. or the state. The postmark is “Wash & Graf”. Don’t know what that means. Please post below if you know what that means or with any memories of the Florida Pool at Cypress Gardens.

This postcard is part of the Swampy’s Florida collection.
