This vintage postcard captures the bustling activity of a marble quarry located in West Rutland, Vermont. The image shows large blocks of white marble being moved by a crane, set against a backdrop of lush greenery and clear blue sky. The postcard is a photographic reproduction by Frank L. Forward, known for documenting New England scenes. Dating from the mid-20th century, likely the 1960s based on the 10-cent postage stamp and postmark, this postcard reflects the industrial heritage of Vermont’s marble industry, which was a significant part of the region’s economy. The vibrant colors and detailed depiction make it a fine collectible for those interested in industrial history, quarrying, or vintage postcards from the northeastern United States.
