greetings from the catskill mts.

Found this giant postcard in pristine condition at Revival on Thursday and had no problem forking over $2 for it. It reads:

"These are the Catskills - the ideal vacation-land, where scenery unsurpassed for beauty and variety includes many miles of various Catskill Mr. Range, and the beautiful valley of the Hudson River. This region attracts thousands of vacationists, who come here to enjoy the splendid facilities for Summer recreation with which the region abounds. Swimming, boating, fishing, golf, tennis and horseback riding are all available here for the sports enthusiasts. Scenic tours through this legendary land of Rip Van Winkle provide a vacation of thrills for all who come here."

They really don't write descriptions the way they used to...
