National Alliance of Postal Employees Building Map Postcard

Hey there folks!  I've got a spiffy postcard to present today.  It's a locator-style postcard for the National Alliance of Postal Employees Building in Washington, D.C.  And what a beautiful building it was!

Here's a closeup of the building from the front of the postcard...

And here is the building today as a residence.  Can you imagine the great architectural features inside the place today!

And here is the current National Alliance of Postal (and Federal) Employees at 1628 11th St. NW in Washington, D.C.

Great card, Brian. Not commenting a lot. Doesn't mean you're forgotten!

Great to hear from you Dave! No apologies. I'm as guilty as the rest! Hope all is well with you.

Love cards with maps and directions on them. Interesting how they modified the roof detail? The 3rd floor window details are different also...A great building and a great card!

My favorite cards tend to be those with strong design elements, and this one certainly qualifies. The bold, complimentary colors and geometric shapes make it really stand out!

That's a great card. I like colorful linen cards, maps, and postal themes, and that card has all of those features.

Love the map - too bad the office today isn't as grand, but what a lucky family!
