This vintage Chrome postcard features the striking 'The American Spirit' sculpture by Clyde Du Vernet Hunt, located in the courtyard of the Bennington Museum in Bennington, Vermont. The bronze sculpture, erected in 1949, depicts Abraham Lincoln symbolizing Charity, alongside a nude woman representing Faith, and a nude boy representing Hope. The sculpture was first cast in 1928 and exhibited at the New York World's Fair in 1939. The scene captures the statue against a picturesque stone building covered in ivy, with vibrant red flowers at its base. A beautiful piece of Vermont history and art.

For postcards priced over $20 (Buy It Now): I ship these first-class in a sturdy cardboard mailer, with the postcard protected in a hard plastic top loader.
For postcards under $20 and auction wins: These are shipped using eBay’s standard envelope service (delivered by USPS), packed in a semi-rigid mailer. If you prefer upgraded protection with first-class shipping, please message me before completing your payment.
Important note about eBay standard envelope shipping: This option doesn’t get scanned like regular packages, so tracking can sometimes be inaccurate. It may show as “delivered” once it reaches your local post office—even if it hasn't arrived at your door yet. Please be patient, and don’t hesitate to contact me if you’re concerned about delivery.
*To keep shipping costs reasonable for customers outside of the U.S., international orders do not include tracking*
