  • Lassen Volcanic National Park (USA)

    Mailed in 1994, and with a full postmark from Mineral, this card would be just great apart from a severely abraded stamp. Otherwise, it provides good views of this lesser-known national park. Grade: 4

    Price: $1.50

    Lassen Volcanic National Park (USA)

  • Death Valley National Monument (USA)

    In the two million acres of Death Valley, one might expect some sand, and here it is. This is an unmailed card from the 1960s (H.S. Crocker HSC-131) and would be absolutely superb but for a travel agent’s black rubber stamp on the reverse. Grade: 4

    Code: 31100093

    Price: $1.50

    Death Valley National Monument (USA)

  • White Pines Forest State Park (Illinois, USA)

    This would be a case where you really, really wanted a card from this location, no matter what condition. The front has postmark smudge and the reverse has a full 1954 postmark but stamp was torn off and there is also a travel agent’s rubber stamp marking. Grade: 5

  • Rocky Mtn. Nat. Park, Long’s Peak (Colorado)

Typical view, which we see from our perspective as “no smog.” Sanborn Souvenir card R-180 – 14828-D was mailed from Denver (full postmark) to Hong Kong in 1983 with two 20-cent stamps. The card has serrated edges and begins to show age. Grade: 2

  • Hawaii National Park, Kilauea Iki Volcano

    Kilauea Iki volcano is in Hawaii National Park and the caption on reverse breathlessly announces that when it came back to life on November 14th, 1959, after 100 years of inactivity, “her fiery lava fountain towered 1900 feet!

  • Yosemite National Park, Grizzly Giant (California)

    Condensed from Wikipedia, “The Grizzly Giant is a giant sequoia in Mariposa Grove; in 1990 Wendell Flint calculated its volume at 34,005 cubic feet (962.9 m3), making it the 26th-largest living giant sequoia.  Grizzly Giant is the oldest sequoia in Mariposa Grove (and) at one time was considered the oldest and largest tree in the world,  aged between 2,000 and 3,000 years. In 2019, refined scientific dating methods resulted in a new age estimate for the Grizzly Giant: 2,995 years old (plus or minus 250 years).  On July 16, 2022, the Washburn Fire threatened Grizzly Giant and other trees (but) the National Park Service used sprinklers to protect it.”  This old, unused postcard’s caption makes an interesting counterpoint to that description.  Grade: 1
