Description

A postcard of the United Spanish War Veterans' brick building in St. Cloud, Florida. A man is sitting in a chair against the outside pillar of the building. The building was originally built in 1910 for the city's First National Bank, but failed in 1917 when it became the People's Bank. The United Spanish War Veterans took over the building in 1934. In 1970, the building became home to the Golden Age Club. Today the building is the home of the city's Chamber of Commerce and is a historical museum. Handwritten on the bottom of the postcard is "UNITED SPANISH WAR VETERANS ST. CLOUD FLA. M1400".
