Item Description from Seller

This vintage postcard features a beautifully rendered image of Zuyah-Chee, a Navajo child from Arizona, captured in profile. The child is depicted wearing traditional Navajo attire, including a red top and a striped skirt, with distinctive jewelry and a neatly tied hair bun. The artwork showcases the cultural heritage of the Navajo people and reflects mid-20th-century American Southwest life. The postcard is labeled with the number H-1947 and credited to Fred Harvey, a well-known publisher specializing in Southwestern tourism and Native American imagery.

Printed on linen-textured cardstock, this postcard exhibits vibrant colors and fine detail typical of the late 1940s era postcards. The back includes a postmark dated September 27, 1949, from Los Angeles, California, and a green 3-cent stamp. The text on the back provides historical context about Navajo girls and their responsibilities, adding educational value to this collectible. This postcard is an excellent addition for collectors interested in Native American culture, vintage Southwest memorabilia, or mid-century linen postcards.
