    Description

    Original Issue
    "THE GROUNDS OF TAMPA BAY HOTEL", TAMPA, FLA.
    Dated Feb. 10, 1913 Postcard
    The postcard measures 5-3/8" x 3-3/8" size.
    The code number on the card is A-20565 which places the printing date between 1910-1911.
    In 1930, the Tampa Bay Hotel was closed.
    In 1933, Tampa Bay Junior College moved into the building.
    Tampa Bay Junior College
    eventually became University of Tampa which it remains so to this day.
    The card has a couple light creases which cannot be seen in the scanned picture and a corner crease upper left which can been seen in the picture.
    The card has a glossy finish and is in extraordinary condition considering its age and it being a paper item.
    Remember when postage for a postcard like this was a 1
    ¢
    stamp?
