photographer: D G Clark
Goodland, KS
example from auction site
The card at the right is from Holdrege, NE. Goodland, KS, is only 172
miles from Holdrege, NE. The imprinted name on this one is different
than the top example. It's only a faint possibility that this is D G
Clark.
This could be Rex M Clark, who is also documented in Fairbury, NE,
less than 150 from Holdrege, NE, and connected by a rail line.
