Dearborn, The Henry Ford Museum, Museum Tower (Michigan, USA)
The caption of this unused Curteichcolor card 2C-K17 reports that the “tower is an exact replica of … Independence Hall, Philadelphia … and contains even the mistakes made in the original building”. It might take more searching to find out what those are. Grade: 1

Code: 37300117
Price: $3.00
Orlando, Walt Disney World, Railroad Station (Florida)
Unused but aging, and with an inked X on the lower right reverse. Left edge is perforated, so this came from a set or a book. Disney (Crocker) card HSC-609-F (PC709). Grade: 3

Code: 37300129
Price: $1.00
Skanderbeg’s Monument, Tirana (Albania)
This unused Aeditions card 1054 represents Albania postcards maybe better than most. The photographer did a good job, as the statue sits at one side of a massive public square that was eerily deserted on the summer Sunday we were there. Grade: 1

Code: 37300130
Price: $4.00
Traditional Costume of Albanian Regions
Unused Aeditions card 1048. We know the location of this photo — though the caption does not say — to be at Gjirokaster castle. By the way, this clock has its own story. Grade: 1 (SOLD)

Code: 37300131

Sahati (Clock Tower), Tirana (Albania)
From Wikipedia again, “The Clock Tower of Tirana (Albanian: Kulla e Sahatit), was built in 1822 in Tirana a by Etëhem Bey Mollaj, a Bejtexhinj poet who also finished the Et’hem Bey Mosque next to the clock tower. It is a monument of culture of first category, approved on 24 May 1948. The stairs have 90 steps that go in a spiral fashion. It is 35 metres (115 ft) tall and was the tallest building in the city at the time. Since the restoration of 2016, 9,833 visitors were counted, who have visited the tower.” As this Wikipedia entry was edited in 2018, so few? The older “clock postcard” is unused, with light handling on the reverse. Grade: 1

Code: 37300137
Price: $6.00
Meet me at … (USA)
This Salke postcard dates itself as 1909, and the Boston postmark from Roxbury Station in 1910 (stamp is also there), with a nicely formal message to Mother. All in all, Grade: 2

Grade: 1

Code: 37300142
Price: $2.00
