New Orleans, Cafe du Monde
Unused card from the French Market. Grade: 1
-
New Orleans, Old Slave Block
You might compare this unused old card with our entry #10119002. The caption on this Curteich-Chicago C.T. Art-Colortone card 8A-H832 points out that the facility was first in the Old St. Louis Hotel, but then was relocated to the State Historical Museum. (Note: Louisiana has similarly-named museums in different cities and we can’t trace the exhibit further.) Grade: 1

Postcard Vendor
The unused card, reproducing an old photo, does not specifically say the location is New Orleans, but it came to us along with many others from there. This is — for reasons that should be clear to everyone — one of our favourite cards ever. After all, we’re in the business. And somehow we have two of these. Grades: 1

New Orleans, aerial view
The view on this unused card includes the famous Superdome, which came into its own during Hurricane Katrina.

-
New Orleans, Rex Parade on Carnival Day
