Scope and Content

Postcard with a black-and-white photo of the entrance gates to Camp Wonderland, Camp Lake, Wisconsin. The road goes through two curved fieldstone walls with two taller stone pillars holding an arched wood sign that reads: The Salvation Army Fresh Air Camp. A caption, printed in black on a white border reads: Main Entrance to Salvation Army Wonderland Camp, P.O. Camp Lake, Wisconsin. The production number, 19546, is printed in the lower right corner but has been obscured by paper. The back of the postcard has the publisher's information printed vertically, creating a separation between the correspondence and address sections. The text reads: Original Camera Study - Reproduction Rights Reserved C.R. Childs, 5707 Lake St., Chicago. The name "Charlotte" is handwritten on the right edge.
