This postcard of Colorado has a lot of information about the State printed on the front (unfortunately blocking the nice view of the Rocky Mountains). It is the 38th State to enter the Union on August 1, 1876. That year was the centennial year of the United States of Independence thereby earning Colorado the nickname "Centennial State".
Postcards I have received from 2013 to 2018 primarily through Postcrossing and Swap-bot although there are some postcards here that are from other sources.
