NOTECARDS NOW AVAILABLE

When the occasion demands stationery, use a Historical Society of Mount Lebanon notecard!

Lebanon Boulevard; Josephines, Norman Center; Borders Books & Music, Rt. 19 at N. Highland Road; and Mt. Lebanon Library, 16 Castle Shannon Boulevard.

Lebanon Cemetery Gatehouse by Baywood Avenue graphic artist Marilyn Narey; St. Bernard’s Roman Catholic Church by Navahoe Drive architect Mimi Jong; “The Nesbit House” (806 Washington Road) by Catalpa Drive digital illustrator Kathy Rooney; The Denis Theater/Potomac Bakery by M.A. Sinnhuber of Art by M.A., 701 Washington Road; Holy Cross Greek Orthodox Church by former Mt. Lebanon resident and art educator Greg Frommeyer; an Arlington Park house by Kris Macoskey; Mt. Lebanon United Presbyterian Church (Twin Towers) by Mt. Lebanon High School graduate and art educator Ned Garnhart; and Beverly Road Shops by former Mt. Lebanon resident and art teacher Karen Larsen. The back of every card contains information on the illustration and the artist.
