Description

This is a negative copy of a photograph by Frank Stumm and enlarged for printing as a postcard. It shows a panoramic view of Benicia and the Carquinez Straits. It has a description of the scene on the bottom as well as Frank Stumm's name as publisher and is numbered 5694. It is in an envelope with writting on it that is probably directions to the printer. It says: D.W. S/S 3 prints with white borders We have found two postcards that contain the scene shown in this negative. One is in color and the other in black & white. They don't have the number 5694 and have different descriptions on the front. One also has a paragraph description of Benicia on the back.
