This original vintage postcard features the Soldiers' Monument in Lunenburg, Vermont, commemorating local comrades who served in the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865. The monument, erected by Howard Post No. 22, G.A.R. (Grand Army of the Republic) Woman's Relief Corps, and citizens of Lunenburg in 1904, stands prominently amidst a grove of leafless trees, giving a glimpse into early 20th-century memorial artistry and local history.Printed with a classic halftone color lithography technique common in early 1900s postcards, this standard-sized (approximately 5.5 x 3.5 inches) card captures the statue of a soldier standing at attention atop a stone pedestal with inscriptions visible on the monument. The postcard is postmarked February 28, 1908, with a one-cent Benjamin Franklin stamp, and features handwritten correspondence addressed to Mrs. Carrie Sears of Jeffersonville, Vermont. This collectible piece offers historical significance, regional interest, and early postcard charm for collectors of Americana and Civil War memorial memorabilia.
