1775mac, what a cool way to collect!
I never thought about the changes that have taken place
and post cards showing it.
Thanks for posting!

 OOOPS! Made a mistake: correction I looked this building up on line. I live near St. Louis, so I was surprised to find that this building made it to 28 stories (less than shown on the post card)! At the time of it's construction it was the tallest building in Missouri. Construction was in 1926.  Gussyboy1 |

Wow that Bell building is impressive. Somehow it looks taller than 28 stories. |

I remember seeing a book one time that showed all the different postcards of Piccadilly Circus in London through time. It's neat to see the evolution of a place or a landmark over time. |
