Mt Jefferson Oregon Metolius River 1940s RPPC Postcard Unposted

This real photo postcard dates to the 1940s and documents a landscape view of Mount Jefferson from the Metolius River region during the mid-century period.

The Metolius River corridor in central Oregon has long been valued for its clear spring-fed waters and expansive views toward the Cascade Range, with Mount Jefferson standing as one of the most prominent volcanic peaks in the state. Scenic photography from this area emphasized open meadows, forested riverbanks, and distant snowcapped summits, reflecting regional tourism and conservation interest during the era.

The image presents a wide pastoral foreground with the river plain and tree line leading toward Mount Jefferson in the distance, rendered in black-and-white with soft tonal gradation typical of EKC real photo postcard paper. A handwritten caption along the lower margin identifies the mountain and river, reinforcing the card’s role as a geographically specific photographic record.
