Greetings from Georgia — Peach Picker

Date
1938, provisional
State
Georgia
Category
Old Georgia
Format
Postcard

A peach-picking scene at lower right gives this Georgia greeting an agricultural theme. The lettering brings together smaller views of buildings and landscapes.

The Elberta peach and access to rail shipping helped build the commercial peach industry around Fort Valley. The picking scene on this postcard gives that work a place alongside Georgia’s buildings and landscapes.
