Description: This vintage postcard from 1909 features a stunning night view of the Great White Fleet Battleship in New York City on the Hudson River. The postcard is an original printed lithograph by AC Bosselman and is in excellent shape. It is a standard-size postcard measuring 5.5 x 3.5 inches. The postcard captures the essence of the Hudson-Fulton Celebration and the history of the United States. It is a perfect addition to any collection of postcards, topographical postcards, or collectibles. The postcard is postmarked and has a divided back. It is a unique piece of history that will make a great conversation starter. The Hudson–Fulton Celebration from September 25 to October 9, 1909 in New York and New Jersey was an elaborate commemoration of the 300th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s discovery of the Hudson River and the 100th anniversary of Robert Fulton's first successful commercial application of the paddle steamer. This was the next major event many of the Battleships from the Great White Fleet participated in. Just think it started at the Jamestown Exposition of 1907, the Great White Fleet Tour of 1908 and this event in 1909. Three great years to have served on one of these ships.
