Full text on front of card: "H-1917. Meteorite Mountain, near Canyon Diablo, Arizona." Text description on back of card: "Several miles southeast of Canyon Diablo, is a remarkable place called Meteorite Mountain, where it is supposed that a colossal sky wanderer once fell. The crater cavity marking its crash into the earth is a mile wide and over 700 feet deep. Large fragments of meteoric stone containing small diamonds have been found nearby." Other text on back: "79847 / PHOSTINT / Made only by Detroit Publishing Co." -- Card has been posted -- there is a postmark & stamp (two of them), along with a handwritten message & address. The stamps are Franklin 1ยข green stamps. The postmark is from Oct 24, 1927 at Train 22 (TR.22) at Ashfork & Los Angeles R.P.O. There is also the same date noted in the handwritten message, just above the description text. Card has minimal markings and corner/edge wear, and overall 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.
