About This Item
Dallas: Franklin Rogers. Very Good. 1912. Postcard. Four panel pamphlet style postcard printed on both sides. One side is a four panel panorama of Dallas, Texas in 1912 (Johnson and Rogers photograph); the other side comprises four b&w images of the Oriental Hotel -- one of the outside structure, one of the Lobby, one of the main dining room, and one the blank postcard for message and address. Printed by Franklin Rogers, Dallas, TX Very Good condition DALLASS ORIENTAL HOTEL, known originally as Fields Folly because of its extravagant elegance when it was first opened to the public in 1893, survived until the middle of the second decade of the twentieth century. Until its doors were finally closed for good, it remained the undisputed leader in the local world of inns and hostelries. The Oriental was born of the grandiose ideas and ambitions of Thomas W. Field, pioneer real estate man in Dallas in the 1870s through the 1890s, and, admittedly, one of the most successful promoters of causes and projects for the benefit of the town. .
