Dr. Campbell's Hospital
-
Description
-
Color postcard showing Dr. Campbell's Hospital (later Trinity Hospital) in Brooklyn. The hospital is a white wooden building with an American flag atop a cupola; two men walk down the sidewalk in front. The building is encircled by a metal fence and a few trees are seen on the sidewalk. | Postcard sent with one-cent George Washington stamp. | Handwritten message on back from Hattie to Mrs. J. C. Armstrong of Paulding, Ohio. Hattie writes that the paralysis is not so bad and that there have been 33 deaths on their street. [Considering the date of the postcard, she is presumably referring to the polio epidemic of 1916.]
