USA: Majestic Apartments

On 13th May I got four postcards: one from the USA, two from Austria and one from Germany.

The card from the USA shows the Majestic Apartments in New York City. The Majestic Apartments is a cooperative apartment building adjacent to the Central Park. It was constructed from 1930 to 1931 in the Art Deco style and is 30 stories tall.

Five stamps were used on this card. For me the most noteworthy is the green stamp about Shel Silverstein's famous picture book The Giving Tree (issued 08-04-2022). A great addition to my collection of Childhood Heroes on Stamps! The other stamps show Strawberries (issued 05-05-2017), an artwork by George Morrison (issued 22-04-2022) and a Barn (issued 14-04-2022) and celebrate the Centenary of the International Telecommunication Union (issued 06-10-1965). 



Thank You very much Patrick!
