Last summer I blogged about the “Portland and Columbia River souvenir playing cards” I was gifted by my Boston friend Jack. Upon the advice of a staff member at the Oregon Historical Society, I scanned the 52 cards, each with a unique image. The cards hold a copyright date of 1909 by the U.S. Playing Card Co. of Cincinnati.
How many of these places do you know? Ready? Here we go!

Nice job Dede and some hard work scanning the cards. Thank you for helping preserve some of Oregon’s History.
