    I attended the Lakeland Collectorama show yesterday. In addition to the Lincoln piece I posted previously, I also found some interesting postcards. This one shows the old Lexington bellfry which is on the reverse of Lexington Commemorative Half Dollar. The image is obscure to collectors now because the structure burned before 1910.
