Grand Rapids Views (2) Michigan Ave. [view to the west]; Bird’s eye view of Grand Rapids.
Scope and Contents
Compared with the Grand Rapids Public Library Postcard Collection, this collection is small at only fifty-eight postcards, plus 1 additional image card, from c.1910 to c.1930. However, the markings and notes on the cards suggest that this collection is unique to the creator, Fannie Phipps Dautrich, not only for image content but for the notes found on some of the cards. As such, it may indicate people she knew, or places she may have visited. Cards such as the Grandville High School photo postcards, the Coliseum interior, and the Grand Haven-Highland Park may be unique.
