15185Morris - George W. Morris
  • Reference
  • Businesses, Publishing Business
G.W. Morris (1901-1922) was an important publisher of pictorial books before they began producing view-cards. Most of their postcards captured scenes of the Northeast, especially of Maine and New Hampshire. The nature of the drawn-in skies found on many of their cards gives then a very distinct look. Their early cards in tinted collotype were printed in Germany and Saxony. - Information from “Publishers,” Metropolitan Postcard Club of New York, Accessed online 02/15/2014; http://www.metropostcard.com/publishersa1.html
