Refer to card 10151043 (Wyoming) for full description of the series. This card has reference numbers 25023 (front) and 108380 (reverse). Even considering the era, the caption on the reverse seems quite cynical. Grade: 1

Price: $1.00
Braslavskiye Lakes National Park (Belarus)
This 5-1/2″ x 8″ card was mailed in 2012 with eight stamps (seven are the same) and four postmarks. Most of the reverse is taken up with a Belarusian caption about the history of the park. Somehow this card survived mailing well. Grade: 2

Code: 31100275
Price: $4.00
Ronald McDonald House Charities – Huai Nam Dang National Park, Chiang Mai (Thailand)
In 2012, McDonald’s Thailand sponsored this promotion selling sets of cards and discount coupons on behalf of RMHC, the in-house charity organisation. This is one of the unused 5″ x 7″ cards. Grade: 1

Code: 31100276
Price: $4.00
Death Valley National Monument, Furnace Creek Ranch (California)
As we sit here in the middle of a cold and gray Hong Kong winter, Death Valley sounds pretty good to us. The card: unused, gently aging. Grade: 2

Code: 31100277
Price: $1.00
Joshua Tree State Park (California)
Not postally used, with a message taking up much of the reverse. Grade: 4

Code: 31100278
Price: $0.50
Fort Worden State Park, Point Wilson Lighthouse (Washington, USA)
Somewhat bleak view of this facility at the northeast tip of the Olympic Peninsula, a part of Fort Worden State Park. Unused, slightly aging card. Grade: 1

Code: 31100279
Price: $3.00
Barnegat Lighthouse State Park (New Jersey, USA)
Unused card dated 1965, an aerial view showing “America’s second oldest lighthouse, Barnegat, which was built in 1856-58 by Lt. General George Meade.” This claim is at odds with other lighthouses (and their postcards) in our website, but we don’t make these things up. Grade: 1

Code: 31100280
Price: $4.00
Port Isabel Lighthouse State Park (Texas)
Unused Dexter Press card 14395-C (and FW-649) of this inactive lighthouse dating from 1852. It was “discarded from use” in 1905 and somehow is still there. Grade: 1

Code: 31100281
Price: $4.00
Fort Washington State Park, Light House lens (Chinook, Washington)
Unused local card 69954. This appears to be just the lens on display, not the entire lighthouse. Grade: 1

Code: 31100282
Price: $5.00
Michilimackinac State Park and Lighthouse, Mackinaw City (Michigan, USA)
As a reminder, we try to follow the spelling used on the postcards themselves. Two of these unused 1967 Hiawatha cards 46781-H (30433) are available. They say this lighthouse was built in 1872 and in operation until 1957, with “the possibility that a marine museum may some day open.” At least one internet source says the lighthouse went into operation in 1892, and that it did indeed reopen as a museum in 2004. Grades: 2

Code: 31100283
Price: $4.00
Acadia National Park, Bass Harbor Light (Maine, USA)
Unused Mike Roberts card C3888 (and ME560), one of few (in our stock) that also identifies the lighthouse location as a national park. Grade: 1

Code: 31100284
Price: $3.00
Cape Hatteras National Seashore – Lighthouse, Buxton (North Carolina)
Some special things about this lighthouse postcard: first, the caption identifies the light as the “Tallest Lighthouse structure in America”. At somewhere between 200-207′, this is still true now. Second, the card was mailed (with address, but no message) using a block of four different 2-cent “National Parks Centennial” stamps representing Cape Hatteras. Third, a large, clear Buxton postmark. This card therefore was a predecessor in style to today’s Maximum Cards, and would be a jewel in any specialty collection. Grade: 1

Code: 31100285
Price: $16.00
Umpqua Lighthouse State Park (Oregon)
Unused Smith Western, Inc., card S-1548-3 (and K-273), aging. Grade: 2

Badlands National Monument, sunset (South Dakota, USA)
Unused Dexter Press card 10×18846-C. The caption writer ran rampant. Very slight aging. Grade: 1

Code: 31100289
Price: $1.00
Lassen Volcanic National Park (California, USA)
The reverse caption on this unused H.S. Crocker card K-105 says that Mt. Lassen is “America’s most recently active volcano,” meaning that the card either pre-dates Hawaii as a state, or they mis-spoke. Aging a bit but in good condition. Grade: 1

Code: 31100290
Price: $2.00
Glacier National Park, West Side Tunnel (Montana, USA)
Not postally used, but with a message fully occupying the reverse. Grade: 4

Code: 31100291
Price: $0.50
Mount Sunapee State Park, ski trails (Newbury, New Hampshire, USA)

Code: 31100292
Price: $1.00
White Mountain National Forest (New Hampshire, USA)
Unused Dexter Press card 54812-D (N-4-949), serrated edges, aging slightly. Grade: 1

Code: 31100293
Price: $1.00
Lincoln State Park (Indiana, USA)
Unused, somewhat aging Curteichcolor card 6C-K430. The caption takes up more than half of the message space–it does go on and on. Abraham Lincoln lived somewhere near here from 1816-1830, and his mother died there. Grade: 2

Code: 31100294
Price: $2.00
Yellowstone National Park, Tower Fall in Tower Creek (Wyoming)
Unused Curteichcolor card 54K105 (6C-K289) of a waterfall described in the caption as being “the height of a 12-story building.” Some aging on the card. Grade: 2

Code: 31100295
Price: $2.00
Cape Florida State Park, Key Biscayne (Florida)
Unused, unattributed card 31808 (and #KB4) of what was, at the time, Florida’s newest state park. Grade: 1

Code: 31100296
Price: $4.00
Pingtung, Kenting National Park and Eluanbl (sic) Lighthouse (Taiwan)
We know we have no other postcard like this. It is a 2-ply card (it doesn’t open up) framing a clear montage of Taiwan scenes on what may be a Cellophane or plastic insert in that map section: you can see through this. The scan shows the front of the card, with Kenting National Park. On the reverse, along with space for stamp and address, is a picture of Eluanbi Lighthouse. (Yes, you can still see those other photos through the map area.) All this is still in the original plastic wrap. Unused, Grade: 1

Code: 31100297
