I really love motel postcards of the 50s to 70s. Here's one from Valdosta, Georgia, postmarked 21 January 1970. I'm going to guess, based on the message and the visible L in the postmark, that it was actually postmarked in Sarasota, Florida. Perhaps a card that the sender had left over from a Georgia vacation. us-1970.01.21-briarwood.motel.valdosta.ga by Mick Taylor, on Flickr Sol "Salty" Fleischman was a sports reporter, initially on radio and then on TV for Channel 13 in Tampa. From an obituary in The Tampa Tribune for 21 April 2000: "His signature TV pieces were entitled "Where Am I?" They were weekly tapes of his favorite fishing spots throughout Florida. Viewers who identified the spots were rewarded with fishing gear."
