Barbara Worth Hotel Scenic Postcards
I have grouped the BW Hotel cards into these categories:
These scenic postcards are not numbered. I added the
numbers for reference purposes. Most of the cards were
published by Albertype and say on the back, "Published by Barbara
Worth Hotel, El Centro, Cal." Three of the cards were published
by C. T. American Art, and say on the back, "Published by Hotel
Barbara Worth, El Centro, Calif."

Before
we
get
to
the scenic
cards published by the hotel,
here
is
a
postcard
booklet
with
an
illustration
of
Barbara
Worth on the cover.
Inside
are
eight
tinted
pictures
of
the
Imperial
Valley,
including
one
of
the
BW
Hotel
and
one
of
two
crates
of
grapefruit,
one
labeled
Barbara
Worth.
One copy of this booklet was postmarked
1926,
the
year
the
movie,
The
Winning
of
Barbara
Worth,
was
produced. Courtesy Dave Hadsell |
