- Description:
- Postcard (color, white border, divided back, 3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches) titled Ante-Bellum Home, A Familiar Sight featuring a street view of a two story building with columns. Antebellum homes refer to the large, elegant mansions — usually plantation homes — built in the American South during the 30 years or so before the American Civil War (1861-1865). Antebellum means "before war" in Latin. Antebellum architecture is especially characterized by Georgian, Neo-classical, and Greek Revival style homes and mansions. Text on reverse: SK-57 Ante Bellum Home – A familiar sight in our beautiful Southland. These majestic homes remain from an era of gracious living that has become nearly a legend of the past. Card number 6C-K920.
