In the early 1900s; the golden age of postcards was just beginning. Millions of cards were mailed across America; and many survive today in archives and private collections. Through these snapshots of history; Tylers evolution can be traced. While fruit and cotton production was king into the early 20th century; a floral beauty soon brought Tyler new royalty-the Rose Queen. The discovery of oil in the citys backyard supplied a security blanket during the Great Depressions uncertain days; and Tyler benefitted with commercial and population growth. This book contains more than 200 vintage postcards that chronicle Tylers social; educational; and medical history and its place in the heart of East Texas.
