1952 Research Farm of Dr. Salisbury's Laboratories Charles City Iowa

This rare aerial view postcard offers a serene glimpse into the quiet industry of mid-century agricultural science. Pictured is the Research Farm of Dr. Salisbury's Laboratories in Charles City, Iowa—a place where innovation met the open plains. Nestled among the grassy fields and scattered trees, the farm's buildings form a tidy cluster connected by winding dirt roads. At the heart of the image stands the main laboratory or perhaps a residence, surrounded by outbuildings that may have housed researchers or supported early veterinary work.

In the 1940s, Dr. Salisbury’s Laboratories was at the forefront of animal health, developing pioneering livestock supplements that would shape American farming practices for decades. The peaceful rural setting serves as a quiet backdrop to this history of scientific advancement. This would look great framed or make an excellent addition to any collection.
