Description

Real-photo, color postcard view of Canoe Brook in Summit, NJ. The postcard is postally unused. The local legend is that the Lenape Native Americans built canoes on the canoe brook and when the spring freshets came, paddled them to the Passaic River and down to the great bay at Newark. The postcard has very lightly bumped corners and light yellowing. The card was purchased on eBay from Rose & Jeremy LeRoque, 5881 Live Oak Lane, Redding CA 96001.
