    Picked up an interesting 1920-ish postcard that depicts the Candler Building in Atlanta. It's a variation of my earlier version postmarked 1906, which is the year the building opened as Asa Candler's banking and Coca-Cola Co. headquarters. The nickles were rolling in faster than could be counted.

    The 1920 card on the left has a higher quality, color print. Same scene with a few differences. Unused with fabulous hand written description on the back (fun fact: Georgia had statewide prohibition from 1908 to 1935). Front is mis-titled by maker as "The Chandler Building", oops.

    $7 eBay BIN and I've already easily squeezed that much fun out of looking at it.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you good collectors and your families. Many blessings.

      Like it a lot, interesting the difference between them. Heading to Atlanta today to visit family. Asked to visit headquarters but again politely turned down. Suggested World of Coke...but I've been many times. If I go this weekend, want anything from the shop?

      Have a great Thanksgiving as well!

      Thanks Chad. Safe travels to see your family today. I've been through the Atlanta airport, never had a chance to visit. Looking forward to doing so one day. Maybe some of us can coordinate a trip to Springtime one year and hit the gift shop together.

      Sounds like a plan Dave, World of Coke has some amazing items displayed.
