This lovely, vintage postcard shows the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington, Virginia. The Tomb was completed in 1931. It has a white marble sarcophagus over the grave with the inscription, "Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God." Thomas Hudson Jones of New York was the sculptor and Lorimer Rich of New York was the architect.
The front side of the postcard is in good condition with some minor wear to the edges and corners. There is a shinny spot on the lower edge of the card and one small spot on the upper right corner of the front. It looks like dried glue, but is only noticeable if the card is turned in the light.
Please include $1.00 for shipping in the U.S. Add an additional $1.30 if you would like the shipment insured.
