About this piece

Antique printed color postcard captioned "Episcopal Church, Rumford Falls, Me.", showing a fieldstone church with a red roof and small belfry spire set on a grassy lawn. Standard size, about 3.5 x 5.5 inches, divided back. Postally used with a green 1 cent Washington stamp and machine cancel; light corner and edge wear and some toning, see photos.

The back carries a full handwritten message headed Rumford Falls, Maine, July 27, addressed to Miss Mary Belle Baker, Centralia, Ill., Box 2, R.F.D. #6. The writer mentions a pleasant time, Hyde Park and an orchestra.

A nice small-town Maine church view for collectors of Oxford County and New England postcards, church architecture, or Rumford history.
