Printed Text: TUCK'S POST CARD CARTE POSTALE. POSTKARTE. By Appointment. Massachusetts has its State Capitol in the historic city of Boston, the "hub" and metropolis of New England. Massachusetts is frequently referred to as the "Bay State" or the "Old Colony State," from the fact that the first colonists in New England settled on its shores. The State has an area of 8,315 square miles, and was one of the original thirteen colonies that formed the United States. Massachusetts derived its name from a tribe of Indians who lived in the vicinity. (FOR ADDRESS ONLY.) Raphael Tuck & Sons ART PUBLISHERS TO THEIR MAJESTIES THE KING & QUEEN.
