Williamsburg, the story of a patriot (Motion picture)
Among the official Colonial Williamsburg postcards produced by H.S. Crocker Co., Inc. in the 1950s was a series featuring scenes from the new Visitor's Center orientation film known as "Williamsburg - The Story of a Patriot."
The caption reads: "This view, which recreates an eighteenth-century service in Bruton Parish Church, was taken from the Paramount-Colonial Williamsburg film, 'Williamsburg - The Story of a Patriot.' The historic church, now restored to its eighteenth-century appearance, was the Court Church of the Virginia colony. Here many great American patriots, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, and Patrick Henry, worshipped. It has been in continuous use since colonial days."
