Auburn California Hotel Auburn Multi View 1920 Postcard Posted Divided Back

This 1920 posted postcard from Auburn, California presents a multi-view layout of Hotel Auburn, then promoted as the most luxurious hotel between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe.

Auburn’s position along major travel routes through the Sierra foothills made it a natural stopping point for motorists and rail passengers in the early automobile era. Hotels emphasized modern comforts and refined interiors to attract travelers moving between the Central Valley and mountain destinations. Multi-view postcards of the period combined exterior architecture with interior spaces to showcase hospitality amenities in a single, comprehensive presentation.

The card features an exterior street view of the hotel façade alongside inset images labeled Lobby, Dining Room, and Office. Period automobiles are visible at the curb, reinforcing the 1920 setting. Text on the front includes Hotel Auburn Auburn Calif., Phone Main 200, and names the proprietors R. G. Sterling and G. W. Boutilier. The reverse shows a divided back with a 1920 postmark and handwritten correspondence, confirming period use.
