1940 Crimson Bougainvillea at Mediterranean Entrance Florida

Crimson bougainvillea spills over a graceful arched doorway in this charming vintage postcard from Florida, printed circa mid-20th century. The vivid blooms contrast beautifully with the white stucco facade and the elegant wrought-iron gate, evoking the Mediterranean and Spanish revival architecture so beloved in the Sunshine State during its postwar boom. The scene captures a moment of quiet tropical elegance, with terra cotta roof tiles peeking through the lush greenery—perhaps a nod to the old-world charm that inspired so many Florida neighborhoods in the 1940s and '50s.

This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
