El Carmel Mission near Monterey, Cal.
Additional Details:
El Carmel Mission (San Carlos Borromeo) near Monterey, Cal. is pictured on this vintage postcard. The handwritten message on the back reads: Dear Florence, Founded 1770. San Carlos is the second mission in the order of founding and is situated in Carmelo Valley. It is in good state of preservation to this day and is well noted for its fine old mission architecture. "On the Road of a Thousand Wonders." Hope to see you as soon as I can get around to it, as am not feeling very swift & sharp yet. I sure 'cold'. Hope this will find you well as ever. Your loving friend, Mabel. |
