Description

One color photographic postcard of the little red school house building. An American flag stands to the left of the main entrance to the building. The back of the postcard has information that states: "The Original 'Little Red Schoolhouse' (1837) at Oberlin, Ohio boasts a varied career. First a school, then a residence, then a tailor shop, it is now a museum, a project of the Oberlin Historical and Improvement Organization. Benches, slates, spelling books, arithmetics, McGuffey Readers and other nostalgic items are intriguing. There are seven copies of this postcard.
