Detroit's Skyline
Oversize black and white postcard depicting the Detroit skyline with Windsor, Ontario in the foreground. Several ships are docked on the Detroit River. The Fort Shelby Hotel, Michigan Bell Building, Book Cadillac Hotel, Buhl Building, Greater Penobscot Building, Guardian Building, and First National Building are visible.
Printed on verso: Detroit Skyline. A fine view of downtown Detroit with its skyscrapers grouped around the river front at the foot of Woodward Avenue. Tied up at the docks are two of the large boats that ply the Great Lakes. In the foreground, by contrast, are the flat roofs of the low buildings in Windsor, Ontario, on the Canadian side of the Detroit River. Just below Detroit is the only point in the U. S.-Canadian boundary where Canadian territory lies south of the United States.
