1956 Palm Canyon Sanctuary CA Postcard

A shaded desert sanctuary unfolds in this vintage postcard view of Palm Canyon, located about six miles from Palm Springs. 

Palm Canyon is one of the most unusual scenic wonders of Southern California. This grove forms the largest natural oasis of its kind in the world. The canyon lies within the ancestral lands of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. Today the area remains a treasured natural reserve known for its miles of hiking trails and striking desert scenery.

This postcard was issued as G-240 Palm Canyon, California and printed as a natural color Curteichcolor art creation.
