Unused Curteichcolor card 0DK-2075, aging somewhat.  Grade: 2

Unused card, aging.  If we were to go to these cottages (which are still there), would we see this scene?  Grade: 2

… at Duneland.  Three of these unused Dexter Press cards 68787-B are available, rounded corners.  Grades: 1

Unused generic card captioned “Peaceful Retreat”.  We sometimes wonder, but couldn’t verify, whether there’s a scene like this near Coopersville.  Grade: 2

Legendary giants of London who somehow found their way to Dearborn, on this unused Curteichcolor card 2C-K11.  Grade: 1

Seems as though this is just a housing development now.  Unused card.  Grade: 1

Unused but highly aged L.L. Cook card 98294 (740V).  Grade: 2

It’s the postcard that says this is the longest suspension bridge.  Time has overtaken the claim, however.  Now, the Mackinac Bridge Authority says:  “The Mackinac Bridge is currently the fifth longest suspension bridge in the world. In 1998, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan became the longest with a total suspension of 12,826 feet. The Mackinac Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in the western hemisphere.”  Anyway, length is measured by the main span.  Unused card.  Grade: 1

This was not the only facility with what–in today’s terms–was such an unfortunate name.  One excellent online source tells us:  “A state institution lived here. Born as the Michigan Home for the Feeble Minded and Epileptic in 1895, it died by the name of Oakdale Regional Center for Developmental Disabilities in 1991.”  It was reputed to be the largest such facility in the world, then.  The unused card has aged but is otherwise in fine condition.  Grade: 1

The park is on an island in the Detroit River, between the USA and Canada.  The card is unused Plastichrome P9727, and this is the “Fountain of Wounded Gazelle”.  Grade: 1

“The ‘Cadillac’ starting its trip down the St. Mary’s River toward Lake Huron”.  Unused, Plastichrome card P9601.  Grade: 1

If you heard of or saw a film called The Road to Wellness, you’ll recognize this facility, which folded as a sanitarium just after the start of World War II.  The film was hilarious (mostly) and so is the Wikipedia entry, which we wholly endorse as light reading.  As for the card, mailed in 1929 with stamp and full Battle Creek postmark.  Awesome!  Grade: 2
