A postcard postmarked in Houston, Texas, on July 15, 1959.
Description on the other side: "The hardwood panel display in the Memphis Municipal Airport lobby, prepared by the Memphis Lumberman's Club, is one of the major points of interest to visitors in the 'World's Hardwood Capital.'"
I haven't been able to determine whether the hardware panel still exists as a major attraction in Memphis , Texas.
