Not included are the chrome and modern post cards. With over 20,000 cards, the following are just Tucson and the University of Arizona. This collection is in the TFD history to show the researcher or interested person the growth of Tucson both in size and type of construction. A fire department must keep up with the city it protects both in size and height of buildings. Early and Pre 1930, White Border: (Around 1898 to 1930) Pioneer Era (Pre 1898) — Most pre-1898 postcards share a few common traits: The postcard of this era is characterized by an undivided back (no line going down the center of the back of the postcard), and many contain printed lines on the back for the name of the addressee and his address only. Private Mailing Card Era (1898 to December 24, 1901) — On May 19, 1898, by an act of Congress, private printers were granted permission to print and sell cards that bore the inscription “Private Mailing card.” Cost of postage reduced from 2 cents to 1 cent. Undivided Back “Postcard” Era (December 24, 1901 to March 1, 1907) — The use of the word “POST CARD/ POSTCARD” (as one or two words) was granted by the government to private printers. Writing was still not permitted on the address side. Divided Back Era (March 1, 1907 to 1915) (Golden Age) —Postcards with a divided back were finally per- mitted on March 1, 1907. The address had to be written on the right side of the back of the postcard while the left side was reserved for writing messages. White Border Era (1915-1930) —After WWI printers of view postcards, to save ink, a white border was left around the view, thus we call them “White Border” postcards. The higher cost of post-war publishing com- bined with inexperienced labor caused the production of poorer quality cards. HISTORY OF REAL PHOTO POSTCARDS 1888 AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHY IS BORN George Eastman introduced a camera that allowed anyone to take 100 photographs. The camera was then mailed to Rochester, New York where the photographs were printed and the camera reloaded and returned to the photographer. This marked the beginning of amateur photography. 1902 PHOTOGRAPHIC POSTCARD PRINTING PAPER INTRODUCED The Eastman Kodak Company introduced the first postcard photographic paper, named gaslight paper. The paper’s emulsion was very fast and allowed the amateur photographer to print at night using artificial light or exposure to a gas jet. The introduction of this type of paper, still used for contact sheets, produced a boom in the making of real photo postcards. Kodak trademarks for gaslight papers were Velox and Azo. Oth- er companies soon followed Eastman: the Canadian Kodak Company manufactured Oko paper and Ansco manufactured the Cyko and Noko papers. 1903 POSTCARD CAMERA INTRODUCED The next development in the history of the real photo postcard occurred in 1903 with the introduction of the Eastman Kodak Folding Pocket Kodak No. 3A. The camera took postcard size (3/12” x 51/2”) negatives. Two other early manufacturers of postcard cameras were Seneca and the Chicago Ferrotype Company. 1906 REAL PHOTO POSTCARD PRINTING SERVICES INTRODUCED In this year Eastman Kodak began actively promoting the real photo postcard business by offering the service of printing the postcards for the photographer. 1907 ESTABLISHMENT OF REAL PHOTO POSTCARD BUSINESSES In this year the “undivided back” postcard was replaced by the divided back” format. The new format added a space for the message on the left back of the postcard, thus allowing the full front to be used for the im- age. This change marked the beginning of many real photo postcard businesses. These businesses employed photographers to take portraits in studios, at and popular locations such as amusement parks. These photog- raphers were also hired to produce postcards of a town for promotional purposes and to also record local events, including disasters such as floods or train wrecks. LINEN ERA (1930-1945 (1960?) New American printing processes allowed printing on postcards with a high rag content. This was a marked improvement over the “White Border” postcard. The rag content also gave these postcards a textured “feel”. They were also cheaper to produce and allowed the use of bright dyes for image coloring. They proved to be extremely popular with roadside establishments seeking cheap advertising. Linen postcards document every step along the way of the building of America’s highway infra-structure. Most notable among the early linen publishers was the firm of Curt Teich. The majority of linen postcard production ended around 1939 with the advent of the color “chrome” postcard. However, a few linen firms (mainly southern) published until well into the late 50s. Real photo publishers of black & white images continued to have success. Faster reproduc- ing equipment and lowering costs led to an explosion of real photo mass produced postcards. Once again a war interfered with the postcard industry (WWII). During the war, shortages and a need for military person- nel forced many postcard companies to reprint older views WHEN printing material was available.

One’s first impression may be of size and distance—broad valleys rimmed by mountain ranges, with a huge sky arching over all. However, a closer look reveals that, beneath the broad brush strokes, this is a land of astonishing variety. For example, it is comprised of several kinds of desert, year-round flowing streams, and sky island mountain ranges.

  • Descriptions of Important Historic Sites
    Appendix A DESCRIPTIONS OF IMPORTANT HISTORIC SITES This list of some of the most important historic sites or properties (buildings, structures, and districts), within the proposed Santa Cruz Valley National Heritage Area includes: (1) all National Historic Landmarks; (2) selected properties currently listed on the National and State Registers of Historic Places; (3) selected properties that are unlisted but are likely eligible for inclusion in the National and State Registers; and (4) selected properties with local significance. The properties in Pima County were identified in 2002 as Priority Historic Sites for the cultural resources element of the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan (Pima County 2002). The properties in Santa Cruz County were identified in a 2004 inventory conducted for this Feasibility Study by the University of Arizona Preservation Studies Program. This combined list does not include every property currently listed on the National and State Registers. It is a small sample of the historic properties with national, state, and local significance in this region, and it can be expanded in the future. 10 COTTAGES ON SHORT STREET, NRHP Short Street Nogales (Early 1900s) These 10 concrete cottages were built as modest worker’s housing early in the twentieth century. They are significant to the Nogales area because they are the only examples of cast-in-place concrete construction in the residential sector. They are uniquely situated on a hillside, with a central stairway access servicing the units. The cottages feature exposed rafters and corrugated steel sheathed gabled roofs.
