Ocracoke/Okracoke Lighthouse

Ocracoke/Okracoke Lighthouse

Before you get confused, we just want to tell you we have two mailed cards, with the same photo on the front but with different reverses.  Both are Plastichrome.  One, mailed in 1969 with 5-cent stamp and Manteo postmark, correctly spells the name of the island (and the lighthouse) as “Ocracoke” (Grade: 1, $4).  The other was mailed in 1961 with a 4-cent stamp and indistinct postmark, less of a caption, but the spelling is “Okracoke” (Grade: 2, $5).
