Description: *** Pictures show the ACTUAL CARD you will receive. *** -- This listing is for one (1) Vintage Tomb Unknown Soldier Arlington National Cemetery VA Postcard - Unposted. Text description on back of card: "The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, VA, is pure white Colorado marble. The beautiful symbolic figures on Peace, Victory, and Valor, commemorative of the spirit of the Allies, are on one end. On either side are three panels, in each of which is an inverted wreath. On the end facing the amphitheatre is an inscription reading: "Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God." Other text on back: "Kodachrome by Helen O'Brien / 250-D-7 / 51164 / Pub. by Racon Wholesale Co., Washington, D.C." There is also a small newspaper clipping that was glued onto the back of the card as shown. It reads: "One of the largest single blocks of marble in the United States is incorporated in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Washington." -- Card is blank -- no handwriting, messages, or postmarks of any kind. Card has some general age discoloration on the back, but has minimal marks and corner/edge wea. Overall, the card seems in great condition for its age. -- Postcard comes from the collection of the elderly couple that lived next door to my grandparents. When that couple moved to a small apartment in their later years, they needed to downsize their various collections and gifted my grandparents their large postcard collection, with cards starting around 1900 and continuing for decades. Some cards are most likely ones they collected themselves (unposted, no writing), along with cards they received from friends who traveled extensively around the U.S. and the globe (handwritten notes, usually posted). -- We do not have the knowledge to grade any of our postcards -- please use your own collecting expertise along with our description and careful review/magnification of all pictures to best judge the card's condition. -- Card will be sealed in plastic and then wrapped for shipment using eBay's Standard Envelope shipping method for postcards. This Standard Envelope method DOES come with tracking, and its low cost allows us to offer this card for sale at a price a few dollars lower than a package shipment would cost.
