Pere Marquette statue, Mackinac Island, Michigan
View of statue of Pere Marquette on Mackinac Island, Michigan. Printed on front: "Pere Marquette statue, Mackinac Island, Mich. Copyrighted 1910 by G.H. Wickman." Printed on back: "G.H. Wickman, publisher. Made in U.S.A." Handwritten on back: "I am up here on Mackinac Island for a week's stay after a very happy three week visit in Cleveland and a most enjoyable ride over the Lakes. There is very beautiful country about these regions. Mackinac Island or 'The Fairy Isle' as it is called is lovely before words. This statue of Pere Marquette is in the beautiful gardens in front of the old fort. Too bad this picture of it is so badly reproduced for the statue itself is very fine. Sincerely, Georg. H. [undecipherable]." Card is postmarked August 31, 1912.
