Roosevelt Park, Waukegan, Illinois E. A. Bishop-published color half-tone postcard

Parks--Illinois--Waukegan

This is the second of three E. A. Bishop, Racine, WI, published standard-sized postcard views of Waukegan parks (with Court House Park and the Glen Flora Country Club grounds). Roosevelt Park has twelve acres of ravine and stream/pond informally designed (classic English landscape/Olmsted style) immediately south of Belvidere Street west of the central business district. Pulbisher Bishop in this case also lists this as C.T. Art Colortone, presumably Curt Teich, a dominant postcoard producer based in Chicago.
