This lovely vintage postcard features the AAA logo. It was mailed from Miami on February 25, 1959 using a purple 3 cent liberty stamp and sent to Miss Hattie Stenews, Greenville New York. It reads:
Feb. 25. We are staying here tonight. I like St. Petersburg much better than Miami – too much like New York City. Marian.
Looks like this address is right in the middle of downtown, replaced by tall buildings. Shame, really. It was a lovely old motel.
