Title	Old Caroline Lowe home, Key West, Florida.
Description	Frame house with balcony and porch. There is a widow's walk on the roof and trees near the house. Text on verso reads, "No home in Key West is more highly valued both as as [sic] an example of our distinctive architecture and because of the vivid personality of its former owner than the Caroline Lowe home at the corner of Duval and Caroline Streets. During the unbroken possession of Key West by Federal troops during the War between the States, a be-deviled Provost Marshal never could locate the Confederate Flag [sic] that Mrs. Caroline Lowe flung to the breeze from the top of this house whenever she deemed the time auspicious." Made by Tichnor Brothers, number 64766; published by L.A. Valladares & Son. Number 21 in a series. Postmarked 1949 on verso.
