High school buildings of this period were typically constructed in symmetrical brick forms with large multi-pane windows to maximize natural light. Postcards featuring schools were commonly produced as local souvenirs and as keepsakes for students and families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"791\" data-end=\"1213\"\u003eThe image presents a two-story brick school building set behind a broad lawn and central walkway, with a flagpole rising prominently in front of the façade. Tall windows line both floors in balanced symmetry, and mature trees frame the structure on either side. The lower caption reads High School, Grass Valley, California, with a publisher number at right. The reverse is unposted and consistent with 1940s production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1215\" data-end=\"1504\"\u003eThe item shown in the listing is the exact item the collector will receive.
