Several "linen" textured postcards that I grabbed recently from a store's dollar bin. I'm unsure of the actual year these were made. They could have been from the previous decade as well.
"Spanish Pool and Zinnia Gardens-- this garden is ablaze with color throughout the summer. Beautiful trees and flowers, wide walks and restful garden seats make this famous beauty spot a delight to visitors."
On the back, each card also reads: Published by "C.T. Art-Colortone Reg. U.S. Pat. Off.-- Wesley Andrews Co., Portland, Ore."
I enlarged the images a bit to show more detail.

"...Why swelter in the midday sun when the water's so cool and refreshing! That seems to sum up our cover girl's attitude around this time every year. Let's join her for a quick, refreshing swim-- it's a sure way to beat the heat. Color by Ozzie Sweet."
Ladies, you should always spend the hour prior to your swim caking on makeup, and plenty of it. Don't forget.
Front cover of a July ("Volume 20, Number 7") promotional 16-page magazine published by Chrysler/Dodge. I'm no expert on cars, but I pinpointed (polka-dotted?) the date by noting their breathless announcement of the Lawrence Welk Show's national premier on ABC.

Someone else had already raided this for clippings, so the world may never know where Oregon's "lost" corner is, or what photographer found it before I misplaced it again. Sorry.
From the August issue.
