1906 Atlantic City New Jersey

This striking black and white postcard captures the Atlantic Ocean in all its moody grandeur, with dramatic clouds parting just enough to let streaks of sunlight dance across the waves. The landmasses in the distance anchor the composition, while the sky and sea work together in a painterly display of contrast and reflection—what artists might call a true chiaroscuro effect.

Printed before the widespread adoption of divided backs, this 1906 card features an undivided reverse, with space only for an address. A monochrome masterpiece from the turn of the century, this card embodies the elegance of early American coastal tourism and the quiet power of natural light.

This would look great framed or make an excellent addition to any collection.
