Vibrant linen-era postcard of the World's Only Corn Palace in Mitchell, South Dakota, showing the building's elaborate onion-domed Moorish Revival exterior decorated with murals and patterns made entirely from natural corn, grains, and grasses. Period automobiles from the 1940s are parked along the street, and the building's "Mitchell Corn Palace" signage is prominent on the left tower.
