Color postcard depicting people at the edge of a lake in Palmer Park with birds floating on the water.
Printed on verso: Feeding the Swans, Palmer Park. Built on land donated to the City by Ex-Senator Thomas W. Palmer, in 1893, and is situated north of the city at the extreme terminal of the Woodward Ave. car line; is one of the city's favorite breathing spots. Its center piece is a log cabin, which is an exact reproduction of the home in which Senator Palmer resided when Detroit was little more than a trading post.
