EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard from 1903 captures the historic Jennie Wade House in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The image showcases the timeless beauty of this architectural gem amidst a backdrop of lush trees and a picket fence. The house itself holds great significance as it was the home where Jennie Wade, the only civilian killed during the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, resided. The print transports us back to a pivotal moment in American history, evoking emotions tied to the United States Civil War. A carriage parked near the house serves as a reminder of how life carried on amidst conflict and turmoil. The presence of an American flag proudly waving adds another layer of patriotism to this scene. The composition and design elements reflect early commercial art and graphic design practices prevalent at that time. This photolithograph postcard is not just a piece of paper; it represents an era when transfer prints were popularized for mass distribution. Preserved by Universal Images Group (UIG), this historical artifact now resides at Lake County Museum under their care. As we admire this glimpse into our past, let us remember those who fought bravely during one of America's bloodiest battles - The Battle of Gettysburg - forever etched into our nation's history.
