Buffalo Views: Twenty-Six Historic Postcards of Buffalo, New York

BUFFALO VIEWS Postcard book is a collection of historic reprints of turn of the century images from New York's second largest city. Each card is meticulously reprinted to the size & color of the original. More than just a collection of postcards, this book features anecdotes & historical information along with each card. The larger format makes this unlike any other postcard book. The postcards can be left in the book or removed & sent through the post office to destinations worldwide. Among the historically significant images are the works of architects: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, Eliel & Eero Saarinen, & H.H. Richardson. From the site of President William McKinley's assassination to the magnificent Art Deco City Hall, Buffalo was also the Western terminus of the Erie Canal & the grain elevator capital of the world. This is a cross section of the Buffalo often overshadowed by reports of massive snowfall, an almost Super-Bowl winning team, & the curious phenomenon of the chicken wing. For the architecture buff, postcard collector, or anyone interested in the American City, this handsomely designed, full color book will make anyone nostalgic for days gone by.Kegler, Richard is the author of 'Buffalo Views: Twenty-Six Historic Postcards of Buffalo, New York' with ISBN 9780963108203 and ISBN 0963108204.
