Postcard reads, "The above is a typical harvest scene in the highly productive Valley of Virginia. In the foreground, fertile, undulating fields; in the background, a graceful, forested mountain ridge. George Washington called the Shenandoah Valley the "Garden of America". When in 1861, the Confederate government placed Gen. J. E. Johnston in command in the Lower Valley, he said that section alone would feed an army of 40,000 men. And in this calculation only three counties were considered. Little wonder that the Shenandoah Valley was known as the "Granary of the Confederacy." Published by Shenandoah Publishing House.

Postcard reads, "The stone section of this ancient house, two miles east of Staunton, is doubtless the oldest structure in Augusta County. Here lived Col. John Lewis, pioneer settler, who came with some thirty Scotch-Irish about the year 1732, when Augusta was a no-man's land. Lewis, a fine type of frontiersman and one of the first magistrates of Augusta, died in 1762 at the age of eighty-four, his grave being near the house above. His five sons were conspicuous men of their times; Thomas laid out Staunton in 1750, while Andrew was the victor at Point Pleasant and a general in the Revolutionary War."
