Sweden
A "real photo" postcard of a school in Sweden. This was found in an antique store in Belton, Texas. The message on the back (uploaded separately) is in Swedish and the postcard is addressed to Fred Nelson and his wife. I can't make out the handwriting well enough to try using translation software on it.

Photo found at Garage Sale Warehouse in Beaverton, Oregon, September 2018. Photo by Swedish photographer Bernhard Hakelier, the chief photographer of King Oscar II. Taken in Orebro, Sweden. His first building, the address on the back of this photo, burned down on November 1890, so that would be the latest date for this photo (he rebuilt at another location the following year). Between 80,000 and 90,000 glass photographic plates were lost in the 1890 fire.
