Size and condition above come from the listing. The description below is the seller’s own text.
The handwritten note serves as a time capsule of a mid-century tourist soaking in sweeping panoramic views of the Mexican capital:"One of those simple but effective works of art, this fountain is small but charming and highly appropriate to the stone-paved courtyard in front of the Castle of Chapultepec, (where I now sit writing and looking out over the great city of México,) for "Chapultepec" in the Aztec language means "Hill of Grasshoppers". Surely this view is one of the finest views of a city that I know."Scene: This card features the iconic Grasshopper Fountain (Fuente del Chapulín) situated in the high stone courtyards of Chapultepec Castle (Castillo de Chapultepec) in Mexico City. Perched majestically atop a volcanic hill, the castle holds deep historical significance as the only royal castle in North America to actually house sovereigns.Size: Standard 3.5 x 5.5”Era: Vintage 1940s / 1950sType: Real Photo Postcard (RPPC)Condition: Minor paper agingThis is an authentic vintage item.
