Saturday's postcards: Albergo Ristorante, near Lago di Santa Croce

Caption on front: 98-62 Lago di S. Croce - 407 - Bar Rist. Bolognese

Caption on front: 98-33 S. Croce - 407 col Lago - verso l'Alpago

These two black-and-white postcards show off some beautiful scenery in northern Italy.

The same text is printed on the back of each card:
ALBERGO - BAR - RISTORANTE
"AL BOLOGNESE"
S. CROCE DEL LAGO

FOTO EDIZIONI GHEDINA - CORTINA - RIPROD. VIETATA
Albergo Ristorante was located near the shore of the Lago di Santa Croce in the Veneto region of Italy. Its offerings, clearly geared toward tourists, included afternoon teas and light luncheons.

Meanwhile, that's quite a bus in front of the restaurant in the top postcard!


Linjebuss was a Swedish bus company that was founded in 1940 and grew into a major transportation company. In the 1990s, it was absorbed into the sprawling international conglomerate now known as Veolia Transdev.

Here are links to some wonderful vintage Linjebuss posters:
