This color postcard features the terminal building of Williamson County Regional Airport, identified on the façade as “Marion–Herrin.” The upper image shows the low, modernist brick terminal with its distinctive angular roofline and broad overhang, characteristic of late mid-century airport design. Large windows line the right side of the structure, providing expansive airfield views. The lower image depicts the passenger waiting area inside the terminal, furnished with molded seating, planters, and bold wall-to-wall carpeting in a warm red tone. The open mezzanine layout and wide glass panels reflect the clean, functional aesthetic common in regional airport terminals of the period.
