World's Largest Sahuaro Cactus - Arizona Postcard, c. 1950s

(3 1/2 x 5 1/2 In) This is an original vintage Lollesgard Specialty Co., C. T. Art-Colortone linen postcard from the 1950s. It shows a view of the "World's Largest Saguaro Cactus".

"Having stood unchallenged for years as the world's largest cactus - over 200 years old, 43 feet tall, with 52 branches - this fine specimen of Saguaro was seriously damaged in a recent storm; and now Arizonans are searching for a "new champion". The publishers will pay $5.00 for photograph and description of a Giant Cactus, accessibly located, which may justly carry on the title of World's Largest. The Saguaro blossom is the State Flower of Arizona.", reads the description printed on the back. 

The postcard is unused and is in VERY GOOD condition, minor wear at the edges.
