  • Lake City, Fishing Below Kentucky Dam

    Unused Plastichrome card P36775.  We sometimes think we could open a new category called “The …est” and somehow each postcard would fit inside.  Why do we say this here?  Because this card’s caption–probably written in the 1950s or early 60s–says the Kentucky Dam is “Forming the largest man made lake in the world.”  We Googled.  It’s not even in the Top 10 now.  Grade: 1

  • Fairview, Jefferson Davis Monument

    Even in today’s charged climate, monuments like this still abound.  Noting the irony that Abraham Lincoln was born not too far from here, we learn from Wikipedia about this monument:  “The Jefferson Davis Monument State Historic Site is a Kentucky state park commemorating the birthplace of Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederate States of America… The site’s focal point is a 351-foot (107.0 m) concrete obelisk. In 1973, it was believed to be the fourth-tallest monument in the United States and the tallest concrete-cast one.”   Not certain about now.  Unused, heavily aged Curteich-Chicago C.T.
