ANTIQUE POSTCARD BELHAVEN FEMALE COLLEGE (UNIVERSITY) JACKSON MISSISSIPPI

Description

Please email with any questions. 1907-1915 postcard of Belhaven Female College in Jackson, MS. This card was published by Kress, for sale at one of their 5 and dime stores. Notice the extra " L" in the name Belhaven on the card. The original college building located on Boyd Street was destroyed by fire in 1894 and a new building was put up on the same site by 1896. In 1910, the college was again destroyed by fire- I think this postcard shows that second building. Corners show wear.
