“In Apache Land, Arizona.” (ca. 1910s). Fred Harvey Postcard 13940. Phostint Card published by Detroit Publishing Co.

            "The Apache Indians were until recently the most warlike of all the Southwestern Indians and have caused the government of the United States, as well as early settlers, no end of trouble.  Today, with their number fast diminishing and with several forts on or near their scattered reservations, with the railroad as an ally, the government has no trouble with them and the Indian has turned his talents to the weaving of baskets and plaques and is at least enjoying the fruits of his labors in peace."  [Text on the back of the postcard, apparently written by a government toady]

Fred Harvey (1835 – 1901) was an entrepreneur who developed the Harvey House lunch rooms, restaurants, souvenir shops, and hotels, which served rail passengers.  He is credited with creating the first restaurant chain in the United States. He was also a leader in promoting tourism in the American Southwest in the late 19th century. Fred Harvey and his employees successfully brought new higher standards of both civility and dining to a region widely regarded in the era as "the Wild West." He created a legacy which was continued by his sons and remained in the family until the death of a grandson in 1965. 

Fred Harvey was also a postcard publisher, touted as "the best way to promote your Hotel or Restaurant." Most postcards were published in co-operation with the Detroit Publishing Company. Their Arizona "Phostint" postcards are collected worldwide.
