This mid-century view offers a sweeping panorama of Atlantic City, the "World's Playground." The illustration captures the immense scale of the resort, showing the crowded beaches and the famous Steel Pier stretching into the ocean. The back of the card describes the city's "unsurpassed" beach and boardwalk, noting that millions of visitors are drawn each year to its fresh sea air and endless amusements. This card carries a friendly holiday greeting from "Edna," sent to the familiar Miss Irma Weidner in Royersford, Pa., during the summer of 1946.
