Postcard Old Mill at Brewster Cape Cod MA 1660 Chrome Curteich Unused

Brewster, Massachusetts, USA1960ChromeExcellent

Ivy and willow crowd the mossy stone wheel of the Old Mill at Brewster, its cedar-shingled walls darkened with age, while a pair of sunbathers lounge on the boulders at the millrace's edge — a timeless Cape Cod summer scene anchored by a structure that has stood since 1660. One of the oldest surviving grist mills in New England, the Stony Brook Mill in Brewster, Massachusetts, has long been a favorite subject for artists and photographers drawn to its picturesque combination of rushing water, ancient stonework, and lush summer greenery. This chrome card was produced using Curteich's famed 3-D Natural Color Reproduction process, distributed by E. D. West Co. of South Yarmouth, a major regional Cape Cod postcard distributor. The card is unused and in excellent condition, a clean example of the Curteich chrome aesthetic that defined American travel postcards from the late 1940s through the 1970s.
