Learn interesting behind the scenes stories about our postcard collection in this in-depth look at Historic Maine: A Postcard View. The postcard craze in America, roughly 1905 to 1915, prompted the founding of many postcard companies. In Maine, photographers sought out small towns and rural life, creating a highly personal and intimate portrait of our state.
