New Pavilion Saltair and bathers, Salt Lake City, USA

The New Pavilion Saltair (built in 1926) and bathers on Great Salt Lake, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The first Saltair, completed in 1893, was jointly owned by a corporation associated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called Mormons) and the Salt Lake and Los Angeles Railroad Company (which originally served the site). Saltair was a family place, intended to provide a safe and wholesome atmosphere with the open supervision of Church leaders. Interestingly, this postcard uses the same plate (as 10652128), but reduces the visible gap of water to change the composition! Date: circa 1926
