1956 Old Mission Bell San Juan Capistrano California

Printed in 1956, this postcard offers a beautiful glimpse of the Old Mission San Juan Capistrano, founded on November 1, 1776. The image focuses on the largest of the four bells that have graced the mission’s bell wall, or campanario, since 1813. Cast in Spain in 1786, this bell remains an enduring symbol of the mission’s rich history. Below the bells, vibrant poinsettias bloom, adding color and life to the scene. The mission, a significant historical site in California, is famous for its stunning architecture and the legacy of its early Spanish settlers.

This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
