Acquired in 2019, the Conrad and Dee Bult Postcard Collection is comprised of 2320 postcards collected by the Bults. The collection is focused on communities with Dutch immigrants. A majority of the postcards picture imagery of Michigan, with a significant portion featuring Grand Rapids and Grand Haven. A section of the postcards feature churches, with one portion of the collection specifically featuring churches from small towns in the United States. Other states are represented in this collection include New Jersey, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, and Iowa. Iowa is the state that is most represented after Michigan. Many of the cards in this collection are blank, some are personal cards sent through the mail, and some are advertisements.The postcards in this collection came in 16 binders. Postcards and letters that did not fit in the box were placed in a larger box. There are tan cards placed in the postcard boxes which will direct you to look for the oversized item in the larger box. The folders titled with a range of letters (A-F, G-L, M-V, W-Z) contain postcards from cities, organized by city name in alphabetical order.
