Munising, Miner’s (sic) Castle

Munising, Miner’s (sic) Castle

The card says “Miner’s” while websites all say “Miners”.   The National Park Service itself says this (and we’ve condensed it a little): “Miners Castel (sic) is … one of the most famous landmarks along the Pictured Rocks shoreline, and the only cliff area in the park accessible by vehicle… a short paved trail leads past interpretive exhibits to breathtaking overlooks of Lake Superior and Grand Island. Stairs and a steeper trail lead to the lower overlook adjacent to Miners Castle. … A rockfall in 2006 dramatically changed the look of Miners Castle as one of its two turrets unexpectedly fell into the lake.”  OK, that’s the history but this is another of the old cards designated as “CABINET SAMPLE” on the reverse, starting in 1938 and showing a growing list of subsequent orders.  As a novelty, and exceptionally, Grade: 1
