Center for Hospital and Healthcare Administration History Hospital Postcard Collection The postcard collection is comprised of over 2,500 postcards depicting primarily U.S. hospitals and medical centers. The collection provides a visual record of a variety of hospitals, sanitoriums, and other related buildings. The postcard collection dates from 1902. The attached description and inventory are available to aid researchers using the collection. The postcard collection is part of the Center for Hospital and Healthcare Administration History, sponsored jointly by the American Hospital Association and American College of Healthcare Executives, and is available for on-site use in the AHA Resource Center. Hospital Postcard Collection Description of the Collection The collection is arranged alphabetically by state, then by city, then by name of institution. Descriptive information has been taken verbatim from the postcards themselves. Any inconsistencies in format can be attributed to this fact. Postcards for an institution that have date information come before postcards for the same institution that are undated. A number in parentheses to the right of a hospital's name indicates the number of postcards for that hospital. If no number is indicated, then there is one postcard for that hospital. Each postcard has been placed in an archival sleeve. On each sleeve is an assigned number, in order for the postcards to remain in correct sequence (for example, Alabama postcards are labeled and numbered AL-1, AL-2, AL-3, etc.).
