c.1930s–40s Entrance to Havana Harbor Cuba Malecón Natural Color Postcard

Original vintage Natural Color postcard featuring a panoramic view of the entrance to Havana Harbor, Havana, Cuba, as seen from the famous Malecón waterfront.

The image captures the landscaped Malecón promenade and roadway overlooking the harbor channel, with the historic fortifications guarding the entrance to Havana Bay visible across the water.

Titled “Entrance to Havana Harbor, Havana, Cuba – 62,” the postcard was published in Havana by Roberts Tobacco Co. and manufactured in the United States by E. C. Kropp Co. of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a prominent American postcard manufacturer.

The reverse also carries the description:

“Entrance to Havana Harbor as seen from the beautiful ‘Malecon’ drive.”

An attractive piece of pre-revolutionary Cuban ephemera combining the history of Havana, the Malecón, Havana Harbor and early Cuban tourism.
