Fort Smith National Historic Site
Commissary: Aerial View
 
elevated view of Commissary with ivy on building
 

This slightly elevated view of the Commissary as seen from the northwest, shows the bastion fortifications along the base of the building. As with many postcards of the Commissary, this one mistakenly says the building was erected in 1830. The second Fort Smith was not begun until 1838.
