Nestled against a hillside thick with summer foliage, the stone-and-timber buildings of the Farmers Museum in Cooperstown, New York make a picture-perfect scene in this vivid linen-era card — the gambrel-roofed main barn draped in ivy, a white cupola bearing a cross rising above it, and a distinctive round stone silo anchoring the right foreground. Founded in 1943 by the New York State Historical Association on the former Fenimore Farm, the Farmers Museum was still a fresh attraction when this card was printed, preserving rural upstate life and early American crafts for a generation hungry for nostalgia after the Depression and WWII. Published by C.W. Hughes & Co. of Mechanicville, NY using the "C.T. American Art" linen process, this unused card is bright and clean with excellent color saturation typical of the best linen production.
