The front of this postcard is a black and white photograph of the front of Saint George's Church in Valley Lee, Maryland. The photo is 3 3/8"w out of a 5 3/8"w card. The church is very plain, with a center door flanked by one window on each side. There is a circular window over the door.There are three women in the photograph. On the top of the blank space is "Poplar Hill Church, Valley Lee, Md," but Poplar Hill church was crossed out and Saint George's P.E. Church handwritten. Mr. Tippett had a large stamp, with which he used purple ink, to advertise his business, a general store. On the verso, on the left edge, there is in red print: 64804 Published for G.A. Tippett. Printed in Germany. The card is bisected by a red line. To the left of the line it says, "This space may be used for correspondence," and on the right, "For address only." Mr. Tippett thanked Miss Lucie Loker for her business and mailed the card on January 19, 1909. The one penny green Ben Franklin stamp is applied upside down.Collection
