This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) transports us back to the early 1900s, capturing the essence of a bygone era. The image features the majestic Steamer, City of Toledo, proudly sailing across Lake Erie in North America's Great Lakes region. The postcard showcases a bustling scene aboard the steamer, with passengers eagerly embarking on their journey. The air is filled with excitement and anticipation as people gather on deck, ready to explore new horizons. Wisps of smoke billow from the ship's towering chimneys, adding an element of drama and adventure. As we delve into this snapshot of history, it becomes evident that this postcard was not just a means of communication but also a work of art. Its design reflects the commercial art and graphic style prevalent during that period in American history.

Today, this remarkable piece can be found at the Lake County Museum within the Great Lakes Basin. Preserved for generations to come by Detroit Photographic Company's dedication to documenting significant moments in time. Let this enchanting postcard transport you back over a century ago when steamers like City of Toledo ruled these waters – an enduring symbol of travel and exploration on North America's magnificent Great Lakes.
