"Bellevue, Washington, located on the east side of Lake Washington, is the state's fourth largest city. A section of the main business district of this suburban city is seen."
From the 1970s. If you click on the image and enlarge you'll see a Datsun auto dealership in the center.

Postcard - Bellevue, Washington
"Bellevue, Washington, located on the east side of Lake Washington, is the state's fourth largest city. This aerial view looks west over the city's business district toward Seattle. In the distant background, both Lake Washington Floating Bridges and part of the Seattle Skyline can be seen."
From the 1970s. Note that fine ribbon of smog.

Postcard - Bellevue, Washington
"Bellevue, Washington. Located on the east side of Lake Washington, the state's fourth largest city. This photo shows a portion of the main business district with Mt. Rainier in the background."
This card is dated 1976. Known as "Blah-vue" by my Seattle friends, Bellevue is no longer the 4th largest city in Washington. It got bumped to number five when Vancouver annexed huge chunks of land several years ago.
If you can make out Mt. Rainier through the smog horizon, it looks really weird, more like a rounded dome than it does in real life.

Buttons - Libraries - Century 21
The Digital Library Survival Guide / Joseph R. Matthews
Eos wrote the book on Digital Libraries!
Matthews can be a controversial figure. I actually saw him get heckled, by librarians(!), in a meeting back in the mid-1980s in Bellevue, Washington.
