This is a lot of two vintage postcards. The first postcard features outboard motorboat races on Hiawassee Lake, located within the Nantahala National Forest. The image, typical of linen postcards from the 1940s, showcases three racing motorboats with their wakes trailing behind them against a backdrop of mountainous terrain and a warm-toned sky. Printed text on the card identifies the scene as "Outboard Motorboat Races on Hiawassee Lake in Nantahala National Forest G-239" and includes the code "K3703." The back of this postcard follows the pre-divided back format, with designated spaces for messages and stamp placement.
The second postcard, also from the 1940s and published by Asheville Post Card Co., presents a romanticized depiction of a Cherokee Indian hunter. Titled "N332:- A PRIMITIVE HUNTER. CHEROKEE INDIAN WITH BOW AND ARROW," the card shows a central figure in a feathered headdress, fringed jacket, and light pants, holding a bow and arrow. The background appears to be a studio setting with blurred foliage. A caption at the bottom reads "ON CHEROKEE INDIAN RESERVATION. CHEROKEE. N. C." The vibrant colors are characteristic of the chromolithographic printing process used for linen postcards of the era.
