Schools were a very important status symbol of towns and cities in the early 1900s and therefore were featured on postcards from almost every town. The first post card below is from Missoula Montana which was the third largest city in Montana and had a population of 12,869 in 1910 and 42,918 in the 2000 census. Commercial College is shown on this circa 1908 I. P. Company postcard which was produced for George I. Steinbrenner in Missoula.
The second post card is from the much smaller town of Havre Montana which had a population of 3,624 in 1910 and 9,621 in the 2000 census and shows the "new" High School.Both of these postcards are available in my Montana listings along with 10,000 additional postcards on my website Moody's Postcards.
