I don't usually buy New York City postcards, but this 1914 bird's-eye view of Lower Manhattan was too beautiful/colorful to pass up. This particular one sold for $2.49, but the ocean liner and tall ship in the lower left-hand corner were chopped off. The beautiful background paper looks like a mat, so I left it in this image that was uploaded by the seller. I splurged and paid $6.87 for the only other one of these (currently) on ebay, becuz those ships in the corner aren't (partially) clipped. #perfectionist #impulsebuy
