*** ======================= ***

*** This is a vintage, hand-colored Photogravure Postcard depicting the John D. Archbold College of Liberal Arts at Syracuse University. In 1886, Archbold became a member of the Board of Trustees of Syracuse University, and was the Board’s President from 1893 until his death in 1916. From 1893-1914, he contributed nearly $6,000,000 for eight buildings, including the full cost of the Archbold Stadium (opened 1907, demolished 1978; the Carrier Dome was built on this site), Sims Hall (men's dormitory, 1907), the Archbold Gymnasium (1909, nearly destroyed by fire in 1947, but still in use), and the oval athletic field. The entrance to the school's Hall of Languages building is inscribed John D. Archbold College of Liberal Arts, but this is not the official name of Syracuse's liberal arts college. Published by Student Supply Store, Syracuse, NY. Not posted
