The Little Rock name identifies the card, while the large letters and the capitol below present the city as part of a wider Arkansas landscape.
The Arkansas State Capitol in Little Rock was built between 1899 and 1915 on the site of the old state penitentiary. The project used prison labor. That history sits behind the domed landmark the postcard presents as shorthand for the capital city.
