Sandusky College Advertisement 1912 · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Sandusky College Advertisement 1912
Description: 1912 Penny postcard using TH and the month of May 1912 to advertise Sandusky Business College in Sandusky Ohio. The card was mailed to Miss Alma Dobrontz of Castalia, Ohio. Unknown source.

This card is actually fascinating. TH turns into "The Race of Life" and success is the sun gleaming at the end of the road. The hare sleeps at the base of a sign pointing to "Business College." The interpretation of the fable stresses determination and effort as the keys to success. The obverse presents Sandusky's claim to Miss Dobrontz: "We have helped others…."
