These three postcards highlight the early automotive tourism, engineering, and coastal scenic routes of Portland, Maine:Maine Publicity Bureau Building: Captures the historic headquarters of the organization that branded Maine as "The Vacationland". This visitor center welcomed early road-trip motorists crossing the state border, providing them with travel maps and cabin guides. The massive ship anchor on the front lawn served as a landmark of Maine's maritime identity.Baxter Boulevard (U.S. Route 1): Showcases the sweeping curves of the historic scenic parkway wrapping around Back Cove. It served as the original coastal U.S. Route 1 highway corridor and features a living World War I memorial of over 100 Linden trees lining the drive.The Million Dollar Bridge: Documents the iconic drawbridge that connected Portland and South Portland over the Fore River.
