Bayside Libraries is proud to introduce our new Local History Postcard Collection, celebrating the early subdivision plans that shaped our community. Each postcard features carefully selected maps from our local collections, bringing everyday stories and forgotten details back into view. Whether you’re sending a thoughtful note, collecting local memorabilia, or exploring our area’s past, these postcards make history tangible and shareable.

From familiar street names to long‑gone subdivision names, this postcard series captures snapshots of local life across generations. Every map has been chosen for its historical significance and visual appeal, with a  link on the reverse to our local history collection to help you understand what you’re seeing, and why it matters. These postcards are more than souvenirs. They’re conversation starters, memory triggers, and small acts of preservation.

History doesn’t have to live only in books and archives. Sometimes, it fits right in your pocket....or your letterbox.
