EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling Union Station in Grand Rapids, Michigan, circa 1913. The image showcases a magnificent train shed filled with an array of locomotives and railroad cars emitting billows of smoke into the air. It is a snapshot frozen in history that captures the essence of transportation and travel during this era. The postcard format adds charm to this vintage piece, reminding us of a bygone era when handwritten correspondence was cherished. Produced by the renowned Curt Teich Company, known for their exceptional lithographs and offset prints, this postcard exemplifies their commitment to quality craftsmanship. As we gaze at this scene from over a century ago, we can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of engines and feel the excitement that permeated Union Station. This transfer print transports us back to a time when trains were not just modes of transportation but symbols of progress and adventure. Now preserved within Lake County Museum's collection, this historic photograph serves as both an educational resource and a nostalgic reminder of our rich railway heritage. Thanks to Heyboer Stationery Company's dedication to preserving these precious memories through photolithography techniques, we are fortunate enough to witness moments like these today. Let this remarkable postcard take you on a journey through time as it celebrates the grandeur and significance of Union Station in Grand Rapids—a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire for exploration.
