Looking for pics of lakeside hotel weirs beach
 
Hi everyone.
I saw a pen and ink picture of the Lakeside Hotel (not hotel weirs) at the general store on the way to meredith but it was not for sale. I spent almost every one of my 1st 20 years at the lakeside Hotel, owned by the Favreau family (I continue to vacation on the lake) and loved it so much. anyone know where I can find a picture? I tried the art studio in meredith and the old print barn but no one had one.
See you at the lake!

The address in Melrose, MA has a 76 inserted into it. It's interesting to note that 7 days prior to the postcard's date the Post office implemented the 5-digit Zip code.

Here is an excerpt of the digits meaning.

By July 1963, a five-digit code had been assigned to every address throughout the country. The first digit designated a broad geographical area of the United States, ranging from zero for the Northeast to nine for the far West. This was followed by two digits that more closely pinpointed population concentrations and those sectional centers accessible to common transportation networks. The final two digits designated small post offices or postal zones in larger zoned cities.

And no, I don't work for the Post Office.:emb:
