A color postcard of Langdell Hall, Harvard Law School, ca. 1920s. At the center is a white multi-story building. The structure has a flight of stairs that lead to a door that is near the middle. To the right of the latter is a facade with two columns. A wing to the far right has four more columns. Many windows are visible between the columns. Another wing at the far left has six windows, three at the top and the others at the bottom. The roof is green and hipped and below its edge are many corbels. A green lawn is at the foreground and many people walk on the paths that are throughout the lawn. At the left of the background is another two-story building. In the distance at the right of the background are other buildings. The names of the featured structure, the school, and the city are in black across the top. The name of the manufacturer and a square box for postage are on the back. Thomas W. Temple II attended Harvard Law School and took classes in this building between fall 1926 and spring 1929. With only a slight yellowing of the paper and a light stain, the artifact is in fair condition.
