Bethlehem PA Pennsylvania First House Memorial Linen Postcard Unused

This vintage linen postcard features a detailed color illustration of the First House in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, also known as the Memorial House. The building is a historic replica dating back to 1741, commemorating the site where unknown Revolutionary War soldiers are buried. The postcard showcases the house with its distinctive wood-shingled roof and rustic wooden exterior surrounded by lush greenery, under a bright blue sky.

Produced by The Mebane Greeting Card Co. of Wilkes-Barre, PA, this postcard is a classic example of mid-20th century linen postcards, prized for their textured finish and vibrant colors. It highlights a significant landmark in Bethlehem's colonial history and appeals to collectors of Americana, Pennsylvania history, and Revolutionary War memorabilia. The card is unposted and features a one-cent stamp box typical of that era.
