This historical piece offers a glimpse into the early 20th-century engineering marvel and bustling activity of the Panama Canal.The postcard is printed on photographic paper, identifiable by the distinctive "AZO" marks on the reverse, a common indicator of Kodak photographic paper used for real photo postcards from the early to mid-20th century. The reverse side features standard postcard divisions for correspondence and address, along with a 'PLACE A STAMP HERE' box. Handwritten notations "7676 19931 $3.00" are visible on the back, likely an inventory or dealer marking. This listing includes the single Real Photo Postcard as pictured.Verified Specifications:
