US-450510

Chicago Water Tower is the second oldest water tower in United States of America. This tower was built in 1869. It is the symbol of Old Chicago and one of the few survival buildings of Great Chicago Fire 1871. Thanks ashulman.



















This postcard was sent with a 98 cents airmail stamp. The cancellation is a bit blur. It was sent from Palatine (?) on 9.7.2009. This seven-wavy lines cancellation with a round date stamp might be of the former type. Most of the meter cancellations I received are without the round date stamp and wavy lines.
