The group of postcards breaks down to about two-thirds postally unused; and one-third that were previously mailed.

(Seven of the eight undivided back postcards had been previously mailed, and have hand-written messages in the wide margins next to the front side color image area). The 16 representative scanned images include the following: St. Mary Hospital, Pueblo; Antlers Hotel, Colorado Springs; greetings from Calhan, Colo.; St. Leo's Church, Denver; Post Office, Colorado Springs; East Side High School, Denver; YMCA, Denver; Cliff House, Manitou; City Park, Denver; Sherman Avenue neighborhood with Presbyterian Church, Denver; view from Rollins Pass; Pikes peak viewed from Colorado Springs (embossed color image area); Seven Falls (hand-colored); Turkey Creek Canyon; Big Thompson Canyon (hand-colored); Public Service Building at night, Denver. Conditions of these cards range from good to near-mint. Some have some light edge wear or minor creasing, and some of the oldest postcards read more
