This is a rare antique postcard depicting the Lima Locomotive and Machine Co. in Lima, Ohio. The front features a vibrant, colored illustration of the factory, complete with a tall smokestack emitting smoke, industrial buildings, and train tracks with railroad cars, offering a glimpse into early 20th-century industrial America. The reverse side is postmarked April 12, 1912, from Lima, O., and bears a one-cent U.S. postage stamp. It is addressed to Miss E. Schlott in Pittsburgh, Pa., and includes a handwritten message. The postcard was published expressly for S. H. Knox & Co. This piece is a wonderful collectible for enthusiasts of industrial history, railroads, postcards, or Ohio memorabilia. It is in good condition for its age, showing some minor wear consistent with antique postcards.
