Postcard:Rondout Valley and Mohonk Lake, N.Y. From Sky Top

Travelers often collected postcards from the many places they visited. Beautiful architecture, scenic views, and luxurious hotels, all appeared on souvenir postcards such as this one. This postcard, postmarked 1916 , captures the experience of one traveler who wrote on the reverse side, " You two people must come here someday! The lake, views, walks and drives are delightful."
