INTRODUCING AMERICA FROM AVANTI PRESS

Snapshots and stories that capture America’s heart, humor and history

The America collection celebrates iconic American life, from favorite pastimes to remarkable landscapes to people and events that made history. Sourced from venerable photo archives, the cards remain authentic to their original prints, and date as far back as 1893. 

A HISTORY LESSON IN ENVERY CARD

Rigorously researched historical copy appears on the back of each card, detailing the date and location of the image and the remarkable story of each scene. From the history of Mount Rushmore, modern jazz, and the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., to the lives of trailblazing women and the popularity of baseball, surfing, traveling, and more, the collection offers a robust and varied vision of the American experience.
