Postcard
Amana (Iowa) Iowa County (Iowa) Iowa
Description: A commercially produced post card that would have been available to visitors to the Amanas at the turn of the century. Shows the main buildings of the Amana Woolen Mill. The building at left is the weaving building, the only structure to survive a disastrous 1923 fire intact. This structure was built in two parts in 1891 and 1908, still stands and is still (2012) used for woolen production. No marks on reverse, but one corner has a fold. Postcard, hand colored. Provenance: Purchased from Peter Hoehnle.
