Vintage 1915 Real Photo Postcard of Goethe-Schiller Monument Wisconsin

This original real photo postcard, dated August 25, 1915, features the iconic Goethe-Schiller Monument located in Wisconsin. The image captures four women elegantly dressed in early 20th-century attire standing in front of the imposing statue of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich Schiller, two of Germany's most celebrated literary figures. The statue itself is prominently displayed on a pedestal with their names engraved, surrounded by lush trees, offering a glimpse into the historic and cultural appreciation of German heritage in the United States during that era.Printed on a standard 5.5 x 3.5 inch Velox postcard, this vintage piece is an excellent example of early 20th-century real photo postcards (RPPCs) that combine photography with postcard publishing techniques. The clear details of the monument and period clothing provide a rich visual history, making it a unique collectible for postcard enthusiasts, history buffs, and those interested in German-American culture. The unposted back is typical of postcards from this era, and the handwritten date enhances its authenticity and provenance.
