Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

An unused photographic postcard with a black-and-white image of Reverend Nelson Jordan seated outdoors on a bent wood loveseat. He wears a dark-colored three-piece suit and his hat is placed on the loveseat at his proper right side. He holds a paper in hand. A house or other wood-siding building is in the left background behind a white picket fence and a taller unpainted wooden fence. The loveseat is placed in the grass, with a pile of large logs in the right background. The verso contains a paper maker's mark in the upper right corner. The name "Reverend Nelson W. Jordan" is handwritten across the postcard where the message and address would normally be written.
