Received the following postcards from United States - Ohio and Utah, Canada, Singapore and France. Here's the description on the postcards in the picture.- Ohio's Native Wildlife.
- Postcard from Singapore.
- The Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
- Eiffel Tower - Paris
- Boldt Castle, Alexandria Bay, NY.
The Eiffel Tower is almost 123 years old as of 2012.
My favorite postcard from the above collection is the La Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower), Paris. The postcard pictures the construction of the Eiffel Tower from May 1888. And mini pictures from May 1888, July 1888, December 1888 and the completed tower in May 1889. Though the Eiffel Tower was built and completed on March 31, 1889. It took about two years from 1887-1889 to build the tower.
thanks for the info on the Eiffel Tower, I would have thought it was older than 123 years old....very interesting. hope you have a wonderful week!
