Placer County Court House Note card

Gold was first discovered in 1848 in Auburn (Placer County), California, after which 300,000 fortune-seekers rushed west to stake their claim. This lovely town in the Sierra foothills is a popular stopping place for travelers going between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe.

The original oil on canvas is scanned by the Athenæum of Philadelphia on a sophisticated high-resolution digital scanner with a raking light to capture surface details.  Printed on high quality stock, the front and back are glossy and the inside is matte, which enables smear-free, easy writing.  These vibrant note cards are blank inside and available individually or boxed in sets of 10.  All cards are 4¼” x 5¾”.
