Here's a neat postcard I found it my collection, although written on.



For those who can't read the inscription it says:

Louisiana Purchase Exposition, St. Louis 1904
Palace of Electricity
Size 525 x 700 Feet
Cost $399,940.00

A sizable amount today; must have been staggering in 1904!

Was it postally used?

They are a great addition to the commemorative stamps issued for the Expo. I've wanted a set of those for quite awhile, stamps and postcards.
