Hanover Bank Building. I've no idea where this building stood - lower Manhattan, probably, but beyond that it's a mystery. I like it, though. It's of French extraction, if you can imagine a Parisian building stretched five times its normal height. It has great solidity, although of course it was hollow, built around an interior court. The card was postmarked 1907, and was addressed to a fellow in Missouri; how it ended up in a Minneapolis shop, in absolutely perfect condtion, is actually a greater mystery than the building itself. I could go to New York to see whether the building is still there, but the man in Missouri? Good luck.
