More Information


This card shows what looks to be a flooded out bridge and road near railroad tracks at Elbow Lake. If looking closely you can make out a person on the road.

Elbow Lake was named after a lake that lies just to the west of the city. It was so named because it is shaped like an arm bent at the elbow. It was in 1873, when the county was organized, that Elbow Lake was named the county seat.

Very nice postcard that is addressed to a Miss Edla Unger of Staples, Minnesota. Posted 1911, Elbow Lake.

Very nice condition with only lightly bumped corners.

Please see photos and email with any questions prior to purchase. Thanks for looking.
