Kourou, L’Hotel des Roches (French Guiana)

Code: 30900680

Hotel Saint-George – The Garden
Have you any idea how many different hotels there are with this name? Any good search engine will give you a clue. The problem with this unused B&W vintage postcard is that there’s no caption. But we have clues. First, the instructions on how to write a message are in French. Second, the card came along with a batch from French Guiana. So we will just tell you it’s aging and a bit smudged on the reverse. Grade: 2

Code: 30900683
Price: $2.00
El Rancho Motel, Lewiston (Idaho, USA)
In a society where every raindop gets an online review, we thought we would see how this motel is doing. If you were to go to Google and search, you would come out of it wondering if they are still in business or not. Thoroughly confusing, but, either way, the card is here. Unused, but heavily creased and some staining on the reverse. Grade: 4

Code: 30900684
Price: $1.00
Banff National Park, Banff Springs Hotel (Canada)
Unused. Grade: 1

Code: 30900685

Code: 30900688K
Price: $3.00
Greetings from Las Vegas, The Hotel Flamingo Casino (Nevada)
Aging, vintage, unused H.S. Crocker card, unnumbered but old enough to date from a time when people dressed formally to go to Nevada casinos. That will give you a clue. Grade: 3

Code: 30900689K
Price: $4.00
Hotel New Frontier, Las Vegas (Nevada)
Unused Mike Roberts card C5992. Grade: 1

Code: 30900690K

Code: 30900692K
Price: $4.00
Lucky “U” Motel, Denver/Englewood (Colorado, USA)
Unused “Colourpicture” card K5509 with some mottling on the reverse. The card makes the motel look really nice, in its day. The most recent online reviews tell a different story. Lucky “Us” for not staying there. By the way, the front says Denver and the back says Englewood. Grade: 2

Code: 30900693K
Price: $2.00
Treasure Island Beach Lodge, Daytona Beach Shores (Florida)
When this card was mailed in 1975 (stamp and postmark are there), this property might have been something special. Our quick Google search shows that it turned into an “eyesore” and a debate was going on about what to do with the long-closed place. Grade: 1

Code: 30900694
Price: $2.00
Saltair Apartments, St. Petersburg (Florida)
Unused, old B&W card showing this apartment short or long-term rental property. It might still be there but the Google search sort of scared us off. Aging card. Grade: 1

Code: 30900695
Price: $2.00
Hotel Piccadilly, New York City
Unused card in terrific condition from a Times Square hotel whose fortunes disappeared right along with those of Times Square. It was torn down in 1982, and the Marriott Marquis went up in its place. Grade: 1

Code: 30900696
Price: $4.00
Windermere, The Windermere Hydro (England)
The card of this hotel was mailed in 1975, with stamp and postmark, and blue bilingual airmail label. The writer had a fine time; the property is still there and gets decent reviews. Grade: 1

Code: 30900697
Price: $2.00
Los Angeles, Wilshire Blvd. and MacArthur Park (Olympic Hotel)
Two of these unused H.S. Crocker cards LA-1147 are available. They were appropriated by the Olympic Hotel, which added its own rubber stamp details on the reverse. We won’t downgrade because of that. Grades: 1

Code: 30900698K
Price: $2.00
Olympic Hotel, Los Angeles (California)
Unused C.T. Art-Colortone card 0B-H362. When this vintage postcard was printed, it must have been a decent place. Our Google search turned up later reviews that made it sound like Hell on Earth. Not so sure what it is now — something is there. The card, though, is great, and iconic for its genre. Grade: 1

Code: 30900699K
Price: $5.00
La Salle Hotel, Chicago (USA)
We promised to tell the stories. First, this card was mailed in 1909, with stamp and postmark. 1909 happens to be the year the La Salle, one of Chicago’s premier hotels, opened. But in 1946, as the Chicago Tribune wrote, “a devastating blaze swept through the supposedly fireproof building, reducing its magnificent lobby to a charred cavern, taking the lives of 61 people and leaving more than 200 injured.” The hotel was rebuilt and lived on until 1976, when it finally closed. Grade: 1

Code: 30900700
Price: $9.00
Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Montreal
The hotel opened on 31st December 1912, and is still there. The card was mailed in 1939, and is still here — with stamp and postmark. Aged, but still Grade: 1

Code: 30900701
Price: $4.00
Athenes – Hotel de la Grand-Bretagne
Old sepia card, not postally used. Someone got through writing about three-quarters of an address, and gave up. We always wonder what happened. Grade: 4

Code: 30900702
Price: $2.00
Swan’s Nest Hotel, Stratford-on-Avon (England)
As with many things British, the hotel is still there — slight change in the name (now Macdonald Swan’s Nest) and with quite mixed reviews. As for the vintage postcard, unused, clean. Grade: 1

Code: 30900703
Price: $2.00
Sorrento, Grande Tarantella, Imperial Hotel Tramontano (Italy)
Unused, vintage A. De Lucca card B.2099. Grade: 1

Code: 30900704
Price: $2.00
Morrison Hotel, Chicago (USA)
With a slogan like “The Hotel of Perfect Service,” what could go wrong? In the Loop, the hotel opened in 1925 but demolished in 1965 and replaced by the First National Bank Building, now Chase Tower. Wikipedia tells us that “Standing 160m high, the Morrison Hotel was the first building outside of New York City to have more than 40 floors,” and “At the time of its razing, it was the tallest building to have ever been demolished anywhere in the world.” And of course on the front is the legend, “Worlds tallest hotel”. The card was mailed in 1929, with two stamps and postmark. Really very nice. Grade: 2

Code: 30900705
Price: $5.00
