Antique & Vintage Postcards

Chrome aerial photograph postcard of the Pittsburgh Medical Center surrounding the Cathedral of Learning at the University of Pittsburgh, viewed looking south-southeast from a low-altitude aircraft. The Cathedral of Learning — Pittsburgh's distinctive 42-story Gothic tower — rises at center-right, flanked by the brick towers of the medical complex including the Veterans Hospital, Montefiore, Children's Hospital, and Western Psychiatric. The wooded Oakland neighborhood surrounds the complex, with the downtown Pittsburgh skyline faintly visible in the distance above the smog line. A mid-century orange transit bus is visible at street level. Curteichcolor reproduction from Kodachrome original. Distributed by Charmcraft Publishers, Pittsburgh.
