COMMENTS:     Santa Fe, N. M. 1872 was visited by a severe storm and the triple tower of the old church was destroyed.  In 1888, the tower and front of the church were repaired as now seen.  This adobe church was built of large sundried bricks.  The walls are from three to five feet thick, both inside and outside covered with a thin layer of mud.  The church is a wonder to all who see ti.  It fronts on the old Santa Fe trail.

The corners of the card are rounded, 1/4" tear along top edge.  Nice sharp printed photo.  Check the photo for more details.
