This vintage postcard features the George Washington Masonic National Memorial, a prominent landmark located in Alexandria, Virginia. The memorial, modeled after ancient towers used as beacons, stands impressively at 333 feet high with remarkable terraced approaches. The illustration captures the monument's classical design with its stepped tower and grand columns, set against a serene sky with lush greenery in the foreground. Printed by B.S. Reynolds Co., Washington D.C., as part of the R-32 Scenic Art Series, this postcard is a fine example of mid-20th century linen postcards, known for their textured paper and vibrant color reproduction. It contains a detailed description of the memorial's significance, its historical ties to George Washington, and the $4,000,000 cost of construction. The postcard is postmarked May 10, 1943, adding historical value and a glimpse into wartime America. This collectible postcard highlights a key piece of American heritage and would be a treasured addition for collectors interested in historical monuments or vintage travel memorabilia.
