This vibrant chrome postcard showcases the Jewel Box, the beloved Art Deco greenhouse and conservatory located in Forest Park, Saint Louis, Missouri. The front image captures a stunning view from across a lily pond in full bloom, with bright red canna lilies in the foreground, a decorative fountain basin at center, and the grand glass-and-steel structure rising majestically behind a handsome stone entrance pavilion. Lush mature trees frame the scene, making this one of the most picturesque views of this iconic landmark. The Jewel Box, opened in 1936, was one of the first cantilever greenhouse structures in the United States and remains a celebrated attraction in the world-famous Forest Park. This postcard presents it in full summer glory, making it an appealing piece for collectors of St. Louis memorabilia, botanical garden postcards, and Art Deco architecture enthusiasts alike. Published by Tichnor Bros., Inc. of Boston, Massachusetts, and distributed locally by John Frost McDonald of St. Louis. The card number is K-7702 and is part of the Lusterchrome series. The back features a divided back format with a descriptive caption noting the Jewel Box\'s floral displays and its status as a leading Forest Park attraction. Condition is Near Mint. The card is unposted with no writing anywhere. Corners are sharp, colors are vivid, and the stock is clean and free of foxing, creases, or bends. An excellent example for any Missouri or St. Louis topographical collection.
