A picture of the Library Society Book sale at the James R. Dickinson Library at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. An unidentified man is sorting various books.
Color image of "An Old Prospector on the desert, Southern Nevada," as written on the front of the postcard. Printed on the back of the postcard: "The old prospector and his burros are inseparably linked with the West's early history. These little fellows carry him over precipitous trails, where other transportation fails; he thrives and multiplies where other 'critters' starve, and whoever hears his musical bray echoing in the morning, appreciates the aptness of his sobriquet. 'Desert Nightingale.'"
