From a postcard published by a Milwaukee firm for the Dunne Company which operated the depot concessions along C & NW Railroad lines. This card depicts a bucolic scene on campus of Iowa State College and shows Old Main Hall (replaced by Beardshear Hall in 1906). To the left is Campanile, built in 1897-98 and still without clocks (see empty round spaces beneath bells). Postcard sold in Dunne's Lunch Counter in Ames train depot at turn of century.
