Hampton Dunn Collection of Florida Postcards

Hampton Dunn Collection of Florida Postcards

As a longtime leader in the Peninsula Motor Club, an affiliate of the American Automobile Association (AAA), Journalist Hampton Dunn had the opportunity to criss-cross Florida countless times. In his travels and own historic research, he became an avid collector of Florida ephemera. His postcard collection alone consists of more than 16,000 items, mostly from the first half of the twentieth century, featuring images of Florida landmarks. Hampton Dunn Collection of Florida Postcards provides scenic images from early twentieth century Florida, conveying a sense of what earlier times looked like, or may have looked like, displaying color images of street scenes, natural vistas, and Floridians at work and play.
