Tichnor

Tichnor Brothers, Inc. was a Boston-based American graphic arts and printing company in operation from 1908 to 1987. Tichnor was one of the major producers of souvenir postcards of American cities in the 20th century, including large-letter postcards from 1936 to 1952. Tichnor and Curt Teich were rivals; in at least one case Curt Teich managers wanted to copy a view from a Tichnor postcard. The Tichnor Bros. archives, a valuable source for American architectural and cultural history, are held at Boston Public Library, which has also posted thousands of free-use images online at their Digital Commonwealth site and in Flickr albums.
