The image is a vintage postcard of the Ford Mansion, also known as Washington's Headquarters, located in Morristown, New Jersey.

The Georgian-style house was built in the early 1770s for Jacob Ford, Jr., an iron manufacturer and militia leader.
General George Washington used the mansion as his military headquarters from December 1779 to June 1780 during the Revolutionary War.
The site is now part of the Morristown National Historical Park, which also includes the museum building and the Jockey Hollow encampment area.
The house is one of the earliest house museums in the United States and is furnished to reflect its appearance during Washington's stay.
