The charming town of Los Gatos is nestled at the base of the Santa Cruz Mountains and is sometimes referred to as the �Gem City of the Foothills.� It has inspired hundreds of postcard images through the years, many reflecting the area�s abundance of natural beauty. As the town and surrounding area grew and prospered through agriculture, logging, and commerce, the local architecture and landmarks became popular subjects. Glimpses of everyday life�churches, schools, houses, and businesses�further enhanced the pictorial history the postcards represent.
