Text on back:
"One of the great scenic attractions of New Orleans is City Park, a tract of land extending for 1,382 acres, sixth largest city park in the country.
In this park the natural beauty of the Louisiana landscape, consisting of cypress islands, massive live oaks, palmetto palms, and a variety of wild flowers, has been preserved.
Found in great quantity and typical of the tropical growth which temperate New Orleans climate favors, are the palms, ranging from small saga palms to the tall Washingtonian palms.
Man of the streets of New Orleans are lined with these lofty sentinels giving the city a semi-tropical appearance that visitors never forget."
