Description
Two postcards; the first has two native americans on it with the word "Oklahoma" and a passage that reads: Slowly o'er the simmering landscape/ Fell the evening's dusk and coolness,/ And the long and leve sunbeams/ Shot their spears into the forest. Written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The second postcard has a guy on a horse with the background of a sunset and the word say "End of the Trail-Oklahoma"
