Tennessee..or Not
This is spooky, don't you think? Two identical towns and two identical blue trucks, and yet these town are 50 miles apart...and neither one is on the Mississippi River. Presumably, you could have had Boise, Idaho printed on this postcard if you wanted to. It's such a fine postcard; who wouldn't want their town's name on it?

The Posey Tube
The Posey Tube was opened to traffic in 1928, connecting the cities of Alameda and Oakland, California. The card shows two-way traffic and a somewhat alarming no-passing sign. The Posey Tunnel now only serves Oakland-bound traffic. Another parallel tunnel, the Webster Tunnel, carries Alameda-bound traffic.
