Greetings from Chattanooga! Postcards from the Scenic City
As mass-produced, commercial objects, postcards' value as historical objects has often been overlooked. "Greetings from Chattanooga! Postcards from the Scenic City," curated by student assistant Wyn Seay ’26, explores the use and history of postcards. The exhibition features views of Chattanooga sites and attractions from the early 1900s through present day and examines the many functions and meanings of postcards, as correspondence, collectibles, advertisements, mementos, and historical records.
