The caption, "Inside the Chapel, The Salvation Army Camp Wonderland, Camp Lake, Wis" is printed along the lower edge. The production number, T-1266, is printed next to the caption.
The back of the postcard has the publisher's name printed vertically in the center, separating the correspondence and address sections. The text reads: "All Rights Reserved - The L.L.

Love, Carol". The postcard is addressed to Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Nelson, 1020 15th St., Rockford, Ill.
