Alabama Mobile arrives draped in Spanish moss and Gulf humidity — a port city where azaleas riot along Government Street and shrimp boats nose into Mobile Bay. These postcards hold the original Mardi Gras town in lithographed bloom: cast-iron balconies, Bienville Square's live oaks, and the slow tidewater glamour of the Battle House.

About the Source

Bella Frye curates American postcards from the great postcard golden age (1900s-1930s) — greetings cards, large-letter cards, real-photo postcards, and linen-finish scenic plates from publishers like Curt Teich, Detroit Publishing, and the smaller regional houses that documented every Main Street, courthouse square, and natural wonder in America. The aged paper tone and original lithographic color are preserved in the print.

Materials & Finish

Printed to order in our Pacific Northwest studio on premium 380gsm cotton canvas with archival pigment inks. Hand-finished and framed in our signature ornate frame with verdigris corner detail, available in three finishes:

• Ebony — deep black with carved ornate detailing; dramatic against light walls
• Verdigris — aged copper-green with antique patina; the signature Bella Frye look
• Bourbon — warm walnut tone with ornate relief; rich and historically grounded

Stretched canvas (frameless gallery wrap) is available for those who prefer a frameless presentation.

Where It Belongs
