PLEASE READ THIS!

If you want to use a postcard or other image in any way, I do want that you contact me.
If you for some reason "forget" to do so I expect that you on social medias, own web sites or in any kind of publication, clearly states where you found the picture, for example www.famgus.se.
Thank You!

It's not fully clear to me yet whether this is a series from #1 to #601,
which is the highest number I have seen.
Time will tell.

I have choosen to divide my collection in the follwing sections:
#1-61, #214-218, #251-263, #313-317 and then the single number #494.
I also have one unnumbered postcard in my collection.

I have on auction sites seen numbers:
#14 "Palatial Yachts moored along Causeway, Miami"
#23 "Routine inspection, Pan American Clipper, Miami"
#42 "Causeways that link Miami and Miami Beach"
#99 "xxx Fort Lauderdale, Fla" (Canal Scene)
#121 "Eventide, Miami, Florida"
#253 "Wells Road, Palm Beach, FLA"
#263 "Visitor's Day, Pan American Airport, Miami, Florida"
#361 "McKillop-Hutton Lion Farm, Ft Lauderdale, Fla"
#369 "Airview of Marine Studios, Marineland, Fla"
#371 "Moray Eel, Marine Studios, Marineland, FLA"
#375 "Feeding time in Marine Studios, Marineland, FLA"
