“A bit of California at your doorstep”. Postcard for Charles and Lillian Brown’s Hotel, home of the Brown Derby Nite Club and the fabulous Jerry Lewis Theatre Club.

Brown’s Hotel was a nationally known resort complex located in the Borscht Belt area of upstate New York, in the Catskill Mountains. It was one of the largest and most elaborate establishments of its kind during an era when the entire region prospered as a tourist destination. From the 1940s to the 1980s, the hotel was a popular vacation destination for many upper-middle-class families living in the New York City metropolitan area. — Wikipedia

This postcard featuring Eightball with swashes is probably from the 1970s.
