Antique postcard of the Presbyterian Church, Lewistown, Ill., published by United Art Publishing Co., New York City. The black-and-white view shows the church with its tall spire topped by a weathervane, arched stained-glass windows and front entrances, with curving walks and large trees. Standard size, about 3.5 x 5.5 inches. Postally used; edge chipping and paper loss at the lower left corner, corner wear, small spots and scuffs on the front, and a light vertical crease near the right edge.

The divided back carries a green 1 cent Franklin stamp (affixed upside down) with a Lewistown, Ill. postmark from August 190- (last digit unclear). The message reads in part "Dear Sam: How do you like our church. This has been a very warm day. Will look for you..." addressed to Mr. Sam Allison, 848 S. Broad St., Galesburg, Ill.
