Description: This postcard features a scenic view of the historic Bunker Hill Quarry in Quincy, Massachusetts, the source of the granite used to construct the iconic Bunker Hill Monument. The image captures the rugged quarry landscape with rocky walls and the machinery of the time, showcasing the industrial nature of granite extraction. The caption at the top reads, "BUNKER HILL MONUMENT WAS BUILT OF GRANITE FROM THIS QUARRY." On the back, there’s a handwritten note that reads "S. Marius, Feb 25, 1940."
