Santo Domingo, Catedral Primada de America (Dominican Republic)

Just to clarify about this cathedral, we quote from Wikipedia: “The Cathedral of Santa María la Menor in the Colonial Zone of Santo Domingo is dedicated to St. Mary of the Incarnation. It is the oldest cathedral in the Americas, begun in 1512 and completed in 1540. It is the Cathedral of the Archbishop of Santo Domingo who has the honorary title of Primate of the Americas because Santo Domingo was the first Catholic diocese established in the New World.”  The card is unused but with noticeable foxing on the back.  Grade: 3
