Views of buildings and mountain scenery fill the letters. The paper edge is part of the physical postcard and is visible in the archive view.

Palm Springs developed as a desert resort before it incorporated in 1938. The buildings and mountains inside the lettering capture the combination that drew visitors to the Coachella Valley.
