Postcard history is often divided into eight distinct \"eras\" beginning in the 1850s and continuing through the \"Golden Age of Postcards\" beginning around 1905 and lasting through 1915. In this golden age, millions of cards were printed and sold throughout the entire U.S. and collecting cards became a popular hobby. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection contains examples from many of the documented eras, including photographic cards popularized in the nineteen teens and twenties. ","\nAdvances in printing and photographic techniques along with faster shipping methods between the U.S. and Europe allowed for the mass production of brightly colored pictorial cards to be quickly manufactured and distributed to sellers. In addition to the printers in major U.S. cities, a network of publishers and photographers allowed many local businesses in small towns across the U.S. to commission postcards of local \"views\" that were cheaply printed in Germany. Many images of small-town life, including municipal architecture, private residences, and street scenes were preserved and are a useful tool for local historians and researchers. These views act as a \"visual record of a town\" and help develop a fuller understanding of the locations represented in the postcards. Additionally, postcards depicted natural disasters, fires, local amusements, and tourist attractions and were important to the souvenir trade of the time.  ","\nAt the height of the industry's popularity, publishers would often share or even steal negatives to create their own postcards and often would change or distort the negative to make them appear different from other printers. Misspellings were common and incorrectly captioned cards were also prevalent. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard collection has several examples of this business tactic and many examples of misspellings in the captions or titles on the cards. ","\nEnthusiasm for postcard collecting began to wane around 1912 and ended with the start of World War I. Even though the initial craze for postcards diminished, they are still produced and continue to be a useful visual record for researchers and historians of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard collection has several examples of this business tactic and many examples of misspellings in the captions or titles on the cards. ","\nEnthusiasm for postcard collecting began to wane around 1912 and ended with the start of World War I. Even though the initial craze for postcards diminished, they are still produced and continue to be a useful visual record for researchers and historians of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection supports many of our Florida ephemera or Floridiana collections and is a great resource for the visual history of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and the other towns of Northeast Florida.

He had two brothers, Harold R. Mesa and Joseph R. Mesa. The Mesa family had made Tampa their home since 1909. His maternal grandfather, Frank Rodriguez, was a pioneer leaf tobacco dealer, and his father, Eladio, was well known at the firm Humphrey Motors, Inc.","Fernando retired from the Civil Service and the Base Exchange at MacDill Field after more than 32 years of service. A World War II veteran, he was a graduate of Tampa Business College, where he earned a bachelor's degree in interior decorating. In 1921, he organized the \"Let's Be Happy Club\" in Tampa to provide a safe gathering place for the youth of Ybor City.","He was active in the community throughout his life, including work with the Tampa Jaycees, the Federal Theatre (1936), the Pan American Commission, and the Tampa Little Theatre (1947). He was also a member of the American Legion, the Holy Name Society of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church, and served as an usher at Sacred Heart Church. In addition, he was a charter member of the Henry B. Plant Museum and the Ybor City Museum, and served as a board member of the Tampa Historical Society.","Fernando was an honorary lifetime member of El Círculo Cubano de Tampa (the Cuban Club), an honorary general in the Krewe of Mambi, and participated in the Gasparilla parades until he was 91 years old. He served for five years as chairman of the Jaycees Christmas display on Bayshore Boulevard and helped lead the first year of the group's Christmas Card Lane. An eclectic collector, especially of antiques, he decorated his home for over 50 years and hosted Christmas parties attended by many of Tampa's civic and social leaders.","In recognition of his many years of community service, the Fernando R. Mesa Morgan Street Park was dedicated in his honor by Mayor Pam Iorio in 2005, and the grand ballroom at the Cuban Club was named after him in 2009.
