How did California and Californians look in the first two decades of the 20th Century (1900 to 1920), considered to be the Golden Age of Postcards? Find out by taking a virtual tour through the author’s private collection of vintage postcards. You will see what Californians wore and the motor cars they drove. You will explore California’s two expositions celebrating the opening of the Panama Canal in 1915, and view the rubble of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and Fire. You will visit California’s many amusements including alligator and ostrich farms, midways and parks. You will see how trolleys and horse drawn carriages shared the road in many towns and cities. Hopefully you will enjoy this journey to a time when women and men wore their Sunday best on beaches, patriotism flourished, and family and friends not only wrote letters to each other, but also communicated through postcards.
