Antique black and white printed postcard captioned "Mt. Calvary Ev. Lutheran Church, Union Blvd. and Wells Ave., St. Louis, Mo.", showing the stone church with its square bell tower, Gothic window and wide front steps. Standard size, about 3.5 x 5.5 inches, divided back. Postally used with a green 1 cent Washington stamp and a St. Louis machine cancel dated 1914; corner and edge wear, light toning and a few small marks, see photos.

The message on the back is handwritten in German, dated 1-9-14 (as read), opening "Liebe Mutter" and signed Willie Rubin. It is addressed to Mrs. Henrietta Rubin, Shobonier, Ills., Box 51, R.F.D.

A nice German-American Lutheran piece for collectors of St. Louis churches, Missouri postcards and immigrant family correspondence.
