Description: Greenville University is a private university in Greenville, Illinois. It is affiliated with the Free Methodist Church. Established as Greenville College in 1892, the institution was renamed Greenville University 2017. In 1855, Stephen Morse and Almira Blanchard founded a college for women, Almira College, which shared an affiliation with the Baptist Church and educated young women, until the change in leadership, affiliation, and organization in 1892. At that time, the Central Illinois Conference of the Free Methodist Church purchased the property of Almira College and named it Greenville College. The institution was restructured to offer a co-educational experience to both women and men. It also became an independent college under the leadership of the Free Methodist Church. They now offer an education and guidance to nearly 800 students, who live on campus in a variety of residence halls. The card was published by “C.U. Williams” who was a prominent businessman of the time, who published picture postcards and was known for his trademark “Photoette” process used as early as 1909. It is in good condition with minor wear and a clean, clear image of the campus and a clean reverse. The colors on the card may vary due to the scanner settings and screen projections.Unless otherwise noted, I use Wikipedia, Playle's and Metropostcard for research and try to be as accurate as possible.
