This card simply says "Interior Epworth M.E. Church, Va." on the picture side. The color card is used. The postmark reads "Washington, DC Aug 6, 1909, 3PM." I've tried looking for historical Methodist churches in the Northern Virginia region without much luck. The Methodist Episcopal denomination eventually became part of what is now the United Methodist Church. However, "Epworth" is a pretty common name for Methodist churches, given its association with John Wesley. It may be possible to find historical information about ME church in that region, but that will have to wait for another time. Absent information about the church, it's difficult to know much about the instrument. If you know anything about this church, please let me know in the comments.
