University of Montreal (Canada)
An old, unused, and somewhat grim-looking real-photo card that makes the university look like an architect’s model. The 1960s card pre-dates computer-generated views but how in the world did they get the picture to look like this? Grade: 2

Code: 31400037
Price: $4.00

This card did have an address on it at one time, because it was mailed (with a 4-cent stamp, and clearly postmarked) in 1966. But the address is gone.

Code: 31400038
Price: $5.50
