About This Vintage Postcard

Travel back to the "River City" during the late 1930s with this vibrant linen-era postcard featuring the Evansville National Guard Armory. Dedicated on December 30, 1938, this Art Deco-influenced brick structure was built at a cost of over $250,000 to replace a smaller facility damaged in the 1937 flood. The image showcases the building’s expansive front and south side, featuring its distinctive rounded corners and stately entrance. For decades, it served as a hub for both military operations and community life, including a large auditorium that once hosted college basketball games.
