Description: This charming antique postcard showcases the "West End of Wesley Lake" in Asbury Park, New Jersey. The front of the postcard features a scenic view across the lake, with a building that appears to be an amusement pavilion or a similar structure with awnings, and a large Ferris wheel or observation tower in the background. Two small boats with figures are visible on the lake in the foreground. This postcard offers a delightful glimpse into the recreational and leisure activities enjoyed at this historic Jersey Shore resort during the early 20th century.
The reverse side of the postcard has a faint but readable postmark from Ocean Grove, N.J., dated August 29, 1907. It bears a one-cent stamp and is addressed to "Miss Isabel Dunn" in Honesdale, PA. The postcard was printed in Germany by the Souvenir Post Card Co., New York.
