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 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.

In 1883, it merged with another Jacksonville newspaper, The Florida Daily Times, and it has been known ever since as the major daily newspaper serving Jacksonville and the Northeast Florida region. The FTU's Centennial Edition, Crowning a Century in Florida: 1864-1964, provides an illuminating overview of the paper's 100 year history, as well as serving as an important primary resource for researchers. Other special supplements and commemorative editions of the FTU provide extensive coverage of pivotal local events and eras, such as the Consolidation of Jacksonville-Duval County Governments in October 1968, and the Year 2000 millennium.\nThe Jacksonville Journal began publication in 1887 as the Metropolis, later the Florida Metropolis. In 1922, it was purchased by Joseph H. Perry and renamed the Jacksonville Journal. The Florida Publishing Co. (parent company of The Florida Times-Union) purchased the Journal in 1959, and it remained the chief Jacksonville afternoon paper until it ceased publication on October 28, 1988. One year before its demise, the Journal published an extensive 100th Anniversary edition, 1887-1987, which is particularly valuable for providing historical details in sections titled Natural and Man-Made Disasters, Expositions and Moving Pictures, Business, and the Military.\nHistory of Jacksonville - Duval County Governmental Consolidation: In the mid-1960s, the city of Jacksonville, Florida, faced complex urban problems and challenges: loss of accreditation for local high schools, outdated infrastructure of sewage and road systems, polluted air from pulp mills and chemical plants, rampant water pollution in the St. Johns River, numerous corruption charges and grand jury indictments of public officials, widespread areas of substandard housing, lack of rudimentary city services to outlying areas, and high property taxes vis-a-vis the quality of governmental services. Multiple governmental structures, including a City Commission, City Council, County Budget Committee, and County Commission, overlapped political jurisdictions which led to inefficient, costly and duplicative services. To ameliorate these problems, key Jacksonville business and civic leaders met in 1965, and decided the solution was to merge city and county governments. After considerable planning by a Local Government Study Commission, a \"Blueprint for Improvement\" (1966) and a proposed Charter (1967) for a new form of consolidated metropolitan government were submitted to the Duval Legislative Delegation. The Delegation amended the Charter and adopted it as a state law subject to voter approval. The Charter was ratified by local voters in a special referendum held on August 8, 1967, which ushered in a transitional planning period of just over a year to prepare for the official establishment of the new government.\nOn October 1, 1968, amidst much celebration, the merger abolishing separate city and county governments and instituting the only consolidated government in the State officially occurred. An often noted and quoted fact was that the City's population instantly more than doubled to over 500,000, making it the largest city in Florida (by population), and the largest city, in land area, in the continental United States. The merger streamlined government, with the establishment of one elected Mayor, one Sheriff's Office, and a nineteen seat City Council. Other changes and improvements attributed to consolidation evolved gradually over the years: a better education system, cleaning up of the St. Johns River, expansion of law enforcement, fire, electrical and rescue service to outlying areas, lower tax rate and a broader tax base leading to major civic improvements and public works programs. Historians and observers also attribute other intangible effects to consolidation, such as a more positive image and higher visibility for the city, the creation of more jobs as businesses relocated to Jacksonville, significant local economic development and growth, the opening of a public University (UNF) in 1972, the addition in 1993 of an NFL franchise team (Jacksonville Jaguars), and the competitive advantage of hosting the 2005 Super Bowl.","Note written by ","The collection contains selective print newspapers, sections and clippings of The Florida Times-Union and the Jacksonville Journal which detail and document Northeast Florida history from 1890 to date.

Other special supplements and commemorative editions of the FTU provide extensive coverage of pivotal local events and eras, such as the Consolidation of Jacksonville-Duval County Governments in October 1968, and the Year 2000 millennium.\nThe Jacksonville Journal began publication in 1887 as the Metropolis, later the Florida Metropolis. In 1922, it was purchased by Joseph H. Perry and renamed the Jacksonville Journal. The Florida Publishing Co. (parent company of The Florida Times-Union) purchased the Journal in 1959, and it remained the chief Jacksonville afternoon paper until it ceased publication on October 28, 1988. One year before its demise, the Journal published an extensive 100th Anniversary edition, 1887-1987, which is particularly valuable for providing historical details in sections titled Natural and Man-Made Disasters, Expositions and Moving Pictures, Business, and the Military.\nHistory of Jacksonville - Duval County Governmental Consolidation: In the mid-1960s, the city of Jacksonville, Florida, faced complex urban problems and challenges: loss of accreditation for local high schools, outdated infrastructure of sewage and road systems, polluted air from pulp mills and chemical plants, rampant water pollution in the St. Johns River, numerous corruption charges and grand jury indictments of public officials, widespread areas of substandard housing, lack of rudimentary city services to outlying areas, and high property taxes vis-a-vis the quality of governmental services. Multiple governmental structures, including a City Commission, City Council, County Budget Committee, and County Commission, overlapped political jurisdictions which led to inefficient, costly and duplicative services. To ameliorate these problems, key Jacksonville business and civic leaders met in 1965, and decided the solution was to merge city and county governments. After considerable planning by a Local Government Study Commission, a \"Blueprint for Improvement\" (1966) and a proposed Charter (1967) for a new form of consolidated metropolitan government were submitted to the Duval Legislative Delegation. The Delegation amended the Charter and adopted it as a state law subject to voter approval. The Charter was ratified by local voters in a special referendum held on August 8, 1967, which ushered in a transitional planning period of just over a year to prepare for the official establishment of the new government.\nOn October 1, 1968, amidst much celebration, the merger abolishing separate city and county governments and instituting the only consolidated government in the State officially occurred. An often noted and quoted fact was that the City's population instantly more than doubled to over 500,000, making it the largest city in Florida (by population), and the largest city, in land area, in the continental United States. The merger streamlined government, with the establishment of one elected Mayor, one Sheriff's Office, and a nineteen seat City Council. Other changes and improvements attributed to consolidation evolved gradually over the years: a better education system, cleaning up of the St. Johns River, expansion of law enforcement, fire, electrical and rescue service to outlying areas, lower tax rate and a broader tax base leading to major civic improvements and public works programs. Historians and observers also attribute other intangible effects to consolidation, such as a more positive image and higher visibility for the city, the creation of more jobs as businesses relocated to Jacksonville, significant local economic development and growth, the opening of a public University (UNF) in 1972, the addition in 1993 of an NFL franchise team (Jacksonville Jaguars), and the competitive advantage of hosting the 2005 Super Bowl.","Note written by "],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eJacksonville, Florida, Historical Newspapers Collection, Thomas G.

The parents of both Jacob and Clara immigrated from Germany before the U.S. Civil War. Clara's father, John Jordan (1847-1916), served in the Minnesota 8th Infantry in 1864-65. Following the war, John homesteaded a 360-acre farm in rural Hennepin County (Minneapolis is the county seat) and served as the first clerk of court in Plymouth Township, immediately west of Minneapolis. The farm on which Jacob was born was adjacent to that of John Jordan. Both Jacob Adams and Clara Jordan attended a German-speaking rural Catholic school, though Jacob completed just two grades and Clara six. Jacob and Clara were second cousins and required approval of the Catholic Church to marry. Jacob and Clara, who were married November 12, 1918 in the rural Catholic Church of Holy Name in Medina Township, Minnesota, had six children: Marianne (1919 -); Agnes (1922-1993); James (1925-2001); Rita (1926 -); John (1928-2006) and William (1935 -). \n \nFollowing their marriage, Jacob and Clara moved several miles north to the small village of Hamel, where they purchased a two-story Colonial Revival house, built in 1911, situated about midway along the town's only street. To serve the surrounding farms, mainly dairy, Hamel, a railroad section settlement, offered two saloons, a hardware store, three small grocery stores, four gas pumps, a blacksmith shop, a Roman Catholic church, a one-room school, and an American Legion community building. Jacob Adams was a carpenter. In 1925, 1926 and 1927, he traveled in the winters to Florida to practice his trade during the season when construction in Minnesota was suspended. The first year he brought the family with him. Rita was born in Winter Haven. Jacob supervised construction of the Church of the Holy Spirit in Lake Wales, Florida. The building, converted into an art museum in the 1980s, remains standing today. In 1933, Jacob managed construction of the Church of St. Anne in Hamel, built next door to the family house. The large brick Gothic-styled church remains the town's largest edifice.  The population of Hamel in 1940 was about 140. Jim, with other children who lived in a radius of about one mile, attended the one-room school, located about 100 yards west of the Adams home. The students, grades 1 through 8, numbered some 30 annually. The same woman, Miss Clara Mahlke, taught there from about 1934 through 1958, when the school was closed and consolidated in a larger district. The high school that Jim and other Hamel children attended was located in Wayzata, about 5 miles south of Hamel. In the years that Jim attended Wayzata H.S., students had to find their own transportation. Not until 1947 did the district began bus service. The death of Jacob from cancer at the age of 51 in October 1941 left Clara with six children and no income. Marianne married in January 1942. The next oldest sibling, Agnes, was then 19 and the youngest, William but 6. \n \nProbably for economic reasons, Jim dropped out of high school after his junior year, 1943. He enlisted in a Civilian Conservation Camp in Michigan, where he remained until entering military service in December 1943. He took basic training at Camp Wheeler, Georgia, and additional training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He returned to Hamel on brief leave in July 1944 before returning to duty at Camp Van Dorn, Mississippi. In early October 1944, Jim transferred to Fort Meade, Maryland, and then to Camp Kilmer, New Jersey, for overseas processing. His troop ship sailed from New York Harbor about October 20, 1944. \n \nThe troop ship docked in England and Jim immediately transferred to a barge that crossed the channel to France. He was assigned to a replacement depot and quickly assigned to the 26th \"Yankee\" Division. The division was engaged in the Ardennes campaign, and Jim was one of the unfortunate many arriving soldiers at the time who were assigned as replacements to units where they had no acquaintances. Though trained in radio at Fort Benning, Jim became an infantryman, carrying a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR). He was in combat from the time he arrived in France to mid-December, when, suffering from severe trench foot, he was evacuated to a hospital in England. He remained hospitalized until March 1945, when he was re-assigned to the 87th Infantry regiment, part of George Patton's 3rd Army. The war's end in May 1945 found Jim in Austria, where he spent the remainder of the year guarding German war prisoners. \n \nIn March 1946, Jim was discharged and returned to Hamel. He worked for the next six years as a carpenter. In February 1951, Jim married Marilyn Sheridan, literally a next door neighbor, one year younger then he, a girl he had known from childhood. Jim and Marilyn had four children, two boys and two girls. In 1951, following the wedding, Jim purchased a farm milk pick-up route, engaged in the task of collecting milk at scattered farms and delivering it to a creamery for processing. It is a difficult industry, requiring service 365 days a year, traveling country roads and long dirt driveways in weather of all sorts. In 1956, the industry replaced milk cans with bulk tankers, which made the process of collecting the milk far less arduous. Jim kept his route for 15 years. In 1965, despite the fact that he had not completed high school, Jim earned a degree through the GED process and qualified to enroll at the University of Minnesota. In three years he completed a B.A. degree in education, majoring in physics and chemistry. Following graduation, he began teaching at a high school in a Minneapolis suburb, about 20 miles from the house in Hamel that he had built for his family in 1961. He continued teaching at the same school for 20 years, before retiring in 1989.\n \nJim died of an aneurism on April 11, 2001, two months after his and Marilyn's 50th wedding anniversary. Jim spoke little of his time in Europe. He earned the Combat Infantryman Badge and several oak leak clusters, though his time in combat was limited by his hospital stay. He was extremely fortunate in having been evacuated to the hospital in mid-December, for, I believe, his unit was severely mauled in the Battle of the Bulge, which began only a few days or less after his departure. He returned from Europe a very quiet man, extremely sober in temperament and habits, and he remained so until the end of his days. Two of his children, his eldest, Jamie (born 1955), and Jordan (born 1963), were career military service. His eldest son, Sheridan (born 1961), spent three years in the Marines and tragically died in a car accident in 2003. Marilyn died in 2009.","Check file with the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection relates to James Adams who served as an infantryman with the 26th \"Yankee\" Division and later the 87th Infantry regiment, part of General George Patton's 3rd Army.

The parents of both Jacob and Clara immigrated from Germany before the U.S. Civil War. Clara's father, John Jordan (1847-1916), served in the Minnesota 8th Infantry in 1864-65. Following the war, John homesteaded a 360-acre farm in rural Hennepin County (Minneapolis is the county seat) and served as the first clerk of court in Plymouth Township, immediately west of Minneapolis. The farm on which Jacob was born was adjacent to that of John Jordan. Both Jacob Adams and Clara Jordan attended a German-speaking rural Catholic school, though Jacob completed just two grades and Clara six. Jacob and Clara were second cousins and required approval of the Catholic Church to marry. Jacob and Clara, who were married November 12, 1918 in the rural Catholic Church of Holy Name in Medina Township, Minnesota, had six children: Marianne (1919 -); Agnes (1922-1993); James (1925-2001); Rita (1926 -); John (1928-2006) and William (1935 -). \n \nFollowing their marriage, Jacob and Clara moved several miles north to the small village of Hamel, where they purchased a two-story Colonial Revival house, built in 1911, situated about midway along the town's only street. To serve the surrounding farms, mainly dairy, Hamel, a railroad section settlement, offered two saloons, a hardware store, three small grocery stores, four gas pumps, a blacksmith shop, a Roman Catholic church, a one-room school, and an American Legion community building. Jacob Adams was a carpenter. In 1925, 1926 and 1927, he traveled in the winters to Florida to practice his trade during the season when construction in Minnesota was suspended. The first year he brought the family with him. Rita was born in Winter Haven. Jacob supervised construction of the Church of the Holy Spirit in Lake Wales, Florida. The building, converted into an art museum in the 1980s, remains standing today. In 1933, Jacob managed construction of the Church of St. Anne in Hamel, built next door to the family house. The large brick Gothic-styled church remains the town's largest edifice.  The population of Hamel in 1940 was about 140. Jim, with other children who lived in a radius of about one mile, attended the one-room school, located about 100 yards west of the Adams home. The students, grades 1 through 8, numbered some 30 annually. The same woman, Miss Clara Mahlke, taught there from about 1934 through 1958, when the school was closed and consolidated in a larger district. The high school that Jim and other Hamel children attended was located in Wayzata, about 5 miles south of Hamel. In the years that Jim attended Wayzata H.S., students had to find their own transportation. Not until 1947 did the district began bus service. The death of Jacob from cancer at the age of 51 in October 1941 left Clara with six children and no income. Marianne married in January 1942. The next oldest sibling, Agnes, was then 19 and the youngest, William but 6. \n \nProbably for economic reasons, Jim dropped out of high school after his junior year, 1943. He enlisted in a Civilian Conservation Camp in Michigan, where he remained until entering military service in December 1943. He took basic training at Camp Wheeler, Georgia, and additional training at Fort Benning, Georgia. He returned to Hamel on brief leave in July 1944 before returning to duty at Camp Van Dorn, Mississippi. In early October 1944, Jim transferred to Fort Meade, Maryland, and then to Camp Kilmer, New Jersey, for overseas processing. His troop ship sailed from New York Harbor about October 20, 1944. \n \nThe troop ship docked in England and Jim immediately transferred to a barge that crossed the channel to France. He was assigned to a replacement depot and quickly assigned to the 26th \"Yankee\" Division. The division was engaged in the Ardennes campaign, and Jim was one of the unfortunate many arriving soldiers at the time who were assigned as replacements to units where they had no acquaintances. Though trained in radio at Fort Benning, Jim became an infantryman, carrying a Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR). He was in combat from the time he arrived in France to mid-December, when, suffering from severe trench foot, he was evacuated to a hospital in England. He remained hospitalized until March 1945, when he was re-assigned to the 87th Infantry regiment, part of George Patton's 3rd Army. The war's end in May 1945 found Jim in Austria, where he spent the remainder of the year guarding German war prisoners. \n \nIn March 1946, Jim was discharged and returned to Hamel. He worked for the next six years as a carpenter. In February 1951, Jim married Marilyn Sheridan, literally a next door neighbor, one year younger then he, a girl he had known from childhood. Jim and Marilyn had four children, two boys and two girls. In 1951, following the wedding, Jim purchased a farm milk pick-up route, engaged in the task of collecting milk at scattered farms and delivering it to a creamery for processing. It is a difficult industry, requiring service 365 days a year, traveling country roads and long dirt driveways in weather of all sorts. In 1956, the industry replaced milk cans with bulk tankers, which made the process of collecting the milk far less arduous. Jim kept his route for 15 years. In 1965, despite the fact that he had not completed high school, Jim earned a degree through the GED process and qualified to enroll at the University of Minnesota. In three years he completed a B.A. degree in education, majoring in physics and chemistry. Following graduation, he began teaching at a high school in a Minneapolis suburb, about 20 miles from the house in Hamel that he had built for his family in 1961. He continued teaching at the same school for 20 years, before retiring in 1989.\n \nJim died of an aneurism on April 11, 2001, two months after his and Marilyn's 50th wedding anniversary. Jim spoke little of his time in Europe. He earned the Combat Infantryman Badge and several oak leak clusters, though his time in combat was limited by his hospital stay. He was extremely fortunate in having been evacuated to the hospital in mid-December, for, I believe, his unit was severely mauled in the Battle of the Bulge, which began only a few days or less after his departure.
