Description: This is a vintage Real Photo postcard (RPPC), unposted and featuring a view of the famous Lotus Beds at Grass Lake in Illinois. In the late 1880's, the area around Grass Lake, Illinois became a popular tourist destination to see the vast lotus beds on Grass Lake. Blossoming lotus beds constituted over half of the total of the lakes. These beds created a tourist boom until the 1940s. Eventually due to excessive human traffic, much of the lotus disappeared. Postcard may have normal wear associated with old postcards such as creases, stains and bent corners. See pics for details and conditions. Reasonable offers will be considered.
