About This Vintage Postcard
This iconic linen postcard features a grand architectural lineup of the "Millionaire's Row" hotels along Collins Avenue in Miami Beach Florida. Looking south from 20th Street toward 15th Street, the scene prominently showcases Art Deco and MiMo (Miami Modern) masterpieces including the Shelborne, Raleigh, Grossinger, National, New York, and Sands hotels. These structures represent the peak of Miami Beach's transformation into a world-class resort destination. The view captures the glamour of mid-century coastal tourism, with palm-lined streets and classic automobiles reflecting the golden age of South Beach.
