LANDMARKS OF NEW YORK CITY

The series consists of at least 37 postcards. In addition to the standard numbering used for Baumann postcards the postcards of this series are also numbered from 1 to 37.
[Thanks to Peter Freitag for sharing numbers & postcard names, and for sending me postcards missing in my collection]

Baumann number E-4301 to E-4331.

Some of the cards have "LANDMARKS OF NEW YORK CITY" written on orange background, some have it on brown background. Both color variants seem to exist for every number.

Every number also seem to have an "unnumbered" version as well. If this "unnumbered" version exist in both "color" variants I don't know.

I have recently learnt the following:
there is a third color, RED ...

The "E" numbering of the postcards jumps from E-4331 to E-6456.
For me this is a sign that postcards in this number span are produced later
than the ones in the span E-4301 to E-4331.

Baumann numbers E-6456 to E-6461 (at least).
