This vintage postcard showcases Seminary Hill at the corner of 17th and Madison Streets in DuBuque, Iowa, featuring a striking view of the rocky hillside topped by historic buildings. The image captures architectural details of the early 20th-century homes nestled atop the stone terraces, with a prominent staircase leading up the cliffside. The delicate hand-coloring adds a nostalgic charm, highlighting the natural rock formations and leafless trees under a pastel sky.Printed in Germany by B.B. Co., this original postcard measures the standard 5.5 x 3.5 inches and reflects early American postcard production techniques from the pre-WW1 era. The blank back is divided for message and address, with clear red-ink instructions for domestic and foreign postage rates. Collectors and history enthusiasts will appreciate this rare glimpse into DuBuque's architectural and natural heritage, making it a distinctive addition to any vintage postcard or Midwestern Americana collection.
