Lenoir appears above NORTH CAROLINA, whose letters hold a sequence of buildings and landscapes. The typography lets the postcard carry both a hometown greeting and a statewide identity.
The Lenoir Furniture Company was established in 1889. Furniture plants grew near the railroad and helped shape the city’s economy. The small Lenoir overprint identifies that manufacturing town on a design made to represent North Carolina as a whole.
