EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1900s, capturing a mesmerizing aerial view of the Parade Grounds in San Antonio, Texas. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its historical significance. The Parade Grounds at Fort Sam Houston US Army post were not just a place for military drills and ceremonies but also housed tennis courts that provided soldiers with a recreational escape from their duties. This unique blend of war and sport is beautifully depicted in this monochrome snapshot. As we gaze upon this picture, we are transported to a bygone era when America was still establishing itself as a powerful nation. The buildings surrounding the parade ground stand tall, reflecting the fortification and strength required during those times. Professor George R. Cromwell curated this photograph as part of his book "Scenic Marvels of the New World" showcasing iconic locations across the country. His contribution ensures that future generations can appreciate these historic landmarks. This print serves as a reminder of our country's rich heritage and pays homage to all those who served in the United States Army at Fort Sam Houston during that period. It encapsulates both the concept of warfare and leisurely pursuits like tennis within one frame, offering us a glimpse into life on these hallowed grounds over a century ago.
