Kansas Tornado
People do interesting things like drive their cars into tornadoes so they can get the perfect photo, which is often the last photo they ever take.

Topeka, S.B.A. Hospital and Beauty Spot
Seems like an odd combo on this unused Metrocraft linen card #10, but anything goes, right? S.B.A. stands for Security Benefit Association and this building was completed in 1930, sold in 1961 to the Menninger Foundation, which left Topeka in 2002 and the owners passed the property along to St. Francis Health Center in 2008. Or at least that’s what the internet tells us. Grade: 1

Code: 10117069
Price: $2.00
Wichita, Wesley Hospital and Nurses Home
Built in 1912, now it’s the Wesley Medical Center. As for the card, it was mailed in the mid-1950s (indistinct postmark), but the stamp is there. Someone long ago inked a date on upper right reverse. Grade: 3

Code: 10117070
Price: $2.00
Leavenworth, St. John’s (sic) Hospital
Unused card, for which we want to get the identity crisis out of the way: it says “St. John’s Hospital” while various Google entries refer to what might now be the correct name, “St. John Hospital”. Either way, the caption says that what you see in the artist’s drawing was “to be erected” and then dedicated in 1964 so we hope they made it on time. The card is beginning to show its age, and the hospital has mixed reviews, but these are trying times. Grade: 2

Code: 10117071
Price: $2.00
A Basket of Kansas Gold Nuggets
Mailed in 1907 with stamp and clear Ellsworth postmark. Grade: 1
