Immediate Source of Acquisition
Much of this collection originates from the Preston Sawyer Collection, which was purchased by the UCSC Library in 1965. The
collection has been supplemented by donations of postcards from local historian Esther Rice, and others.
Preston Sawyer (1899-1968) was a collector, writer, and photographer who lived in Santa Cruz, CA in the first half of the
20th century.
This collection contains postcards and postcard packets from the Santa Cruz area, California counties, the United States,
and some international locations.
