This exhibit showcases Toledo's historical postcards.  The earlier Toledo's Attic site used to have a unique feature allowing visitors to send friends, family, and loved ones a virtual postcard.  While that wonderful feature is no longer available on this site, these exhibits nevertheless capture the grandeur of Toledo's vanishing architecture and the city's historic institutions.

The collections in this exhibit come mostly from the Ward M. Canaday Center at the University of Toledo, Libraries, and more will be added as we develop this site.   The souce of these images is the Donald Duhaime Collection: MSS-077.
