Postcard

522 - Concert Day, Belle Isle, Detroit, Mich.

One postcard of a band pavilion that is located on a bridge over one of the canals on Belle Isle. The postcard shows a colorized drawing that depicts a large group of spectators who are seated in canoes and along grassy canal banks and are listening to a band concert. Blue printed text on the verso reads "Band concerts are given at the city's expense during the summer afternoons and evenings. These concerts draw immense crowds, both shores being lined with pleasure seekers, while the graceful canoes throng the canal."
