Postcard: Grant Park, Chicago IL.
I have been skimpy on mentioning anything in this neighboring state, so here is a very attractive card I found. It is used, and postmarked 1947.
"The southern expanse of Grant Park presents this vision of loveliness to visitors. The twin drives lead into the park from Michigan Boulevard at Van Buren and Harrison Streets and half encircle the plaza. Directly across the twin bridges plays Buckingham Foutain"
