Moonlight on Government Buildings from G.P.H. Fiji
In December 1942 a man wrote to his mother in St. Paul, Minnesota, and mailed the card in St. Paul (it has the stamp and clear postmark) telling her that he would be in Los Angeles for Christmas. Not knowing the back story, we wonder whether mom would have been happiest getting this card from Los Angeles, St. Paul, or … Fiji. Nobody will ever know. Real photo. Grade: 4

Albany, The Plaza, Old Post Office and State Capitol (New York)
This card was mailed in 1960, with 3-cent stamp and full Albany postmark. But there’s a twist: the writer forgot to put any address, so the Post Office placed their large purple “Returned to Writer” chop in that space, and returned it … but to whom? The writer didn’t put her own address. Was Albany so small in 1960 that the Post Office knew who “Peggy” was? We’ll never know. Grade: 2
