  • Colorado Springs, Seven Falls in South Cheyenne Canon

    Dexter Press card 6305-C (#3564) with serrated edges.  It was not mailed and is unwritten apart from a round blue rubber-stamped “chop” on the back saying that it was mailed at Seven Falls … we don’t downgrade the card because of that.   Grade: 1

  • Denver, The Broncho Buster – Civic Center And State Capitol

  • Morrison, Park of the Red Rocks, Denver Mountain Parks

    Can’t quite make out the year on this old card’s postmark–maybe 1923?–but the stamp is there and that age looks about right.  Grade: 3

  • Suspension Bridge over Royal Gorge

    The caption on this unused card says “The highest bridge in the world” and that was true when the card was printed.  Now, ranking #13 on Wikipedia’s list, it’s just the highest in the U.S.A.  And what does Wikipedia have to say about the current highest?:  “The rankings of the world’s tallest and highest bridges differ in part because some of the highest bridges are built across deep valleys and gorges. The Sidu River Bridge in Hubei Province of China is a suspension bridge that spans a deep river gorge. The bridge’s two towers, built on either rim of the gorge, are not tall enough for the bridge structure to be counted among the world’s tallest, but due to the depth of the river gorge, the deck height of the Sidu River Bridge is at least 496 m (1,627 ft) above the river, making it the highest bridge in the world. ”  So there!  Grade: 2

  • Royal Gorge, Grand Canyon of the Arkansas

    First, let’s get this observation out of the way:  the Grand Canyon of the Arkansas is in Colorado, and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado is in Arizona.  Maybe they could start over?  Now, about the postcard:  unmailed E.C.

  • Main Street of Estes Park

    Mailed in 1965 with a 5-cent stamp and postmark, the front of this card is good but the reverse has some water stains that have blurred the message a bit.  Still, it’s a passable “Main Street postcard”.  Grade: 3

  • Lookout Mountain, Grave of Buffalo Bill

    Among Buffalo Bill postcards, this one is as close to “fun” as it is possible for any postcard with a grave on it to be.  In 1943, Margaret wrote to Helen about her visit (stamp and postmark are there) and strongly suggested how great it would be if they could both live there.  (Presume she didn’t mean right at the gravesite.)  Linen card, with a pencilled line through the street address.  Grade: 2

  • Canon City, Royal Gorge, Diesel Train

    Unused Dexter Press card 84134 from Sanborn Souvenir, with rounded corners and a caption on the back calling the Suspension Bridge you see here spanning the Arkansas River the “World’s Highest Bridge”.  It should surprise nobody that Googling a list of “world’s highest bridges” now ranks this one as #24, behind one in Mexico, one in Papua New Guinea, and 21 in PR China.  Grade: 1
