Kansas City, Interior of Convention Hall
Not just the interior, but “as arranged for theatrical performances.” Ironically, the sender of this card in 1909 reported that a track meet was held there, which should have provided some drama, at least. Stamp and postmark are intact, along with creasing on the lower left corner. Grade: 3

Price: $2.00
Kansas City International Airport
According to the caption on this unused card, the three terminals can handle 10-12 millon passengers annually. We used to get to go visit the predecessor to this facility when we were very little. In those days you could walk right out to the planes and peer onboard. Heaven. Grade: 1

Springfield, Colonial Hotel
Mailed in 1963 with a 4-cent stamp and two postmarks, the card’s poignant message is if anything overshadowed by the history of the hotel itself.
