Step back in time to 1907 with this charming postcard capturing the scenic view from Smiley Heights in Redlands, California. Known as the "Jewel of the Inland Empire," Smiley Heights was once a lush botanical showcase created by twin philanthropists Alfred and Albert Smiley. They transformed the hills into a paradise of winding drives, exotic plantings, and dramatic overlooks, attracting tourists and locals alike. This postcard shows the serene beauty and elegance of early 20th-century Southern California, when horse-drawn carriages still wandered the citrus-scented streets below.
This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
