    ca 1940s oversized postcard from Montgomery Alabama promoting WSFA radio's newly installed 190 foot broadcasting tower. This was a CBS station.
    WSFA became a landmark in Montgomery and was most famous in its early days for launching the career of country music legend
    Hank Williams
    , a native of nearby Georgiana, in the 1940s.
    Postally unused card measures 5 inches by 7
    3/8
    inches. It is printed in purple ink.
    This am station broad-casted at 1410 KC.
    As of 23 July 2021 I couldn't find this postcard or image anywhere else on ebay either in current or completed listings

    WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
    NO EXCEPTIONS.
    FREE SHIPPING via stiff plastic postcard holder and/or cardboard + plastic sleeve protected 1st class mail, STANDARD RATE.
    Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page" - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - it is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Parcel." Buyer MAY opt in (at a small-ish extra charge) for upgraded 1st class mail package rate (with TRACKING #)  at checkout if they choose to do so.
    I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
    business
    days (Mon-Fri)
    max
    - often less than that.
    PAYPAL IS THE MUCH PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT.
    Thanks!
    Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
    NOT
    FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
    PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
    In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
