Alphabet 2023 | O Is for O'Brien

The following one in the Alphabet 2023 project is O, sent from O'Brien (Oregon). But, this time it does not get a manual cancellation (Sorry: I am not able to read the automated cancellation).

But it got perfectly matched stamps on the back!

Umpqua River, Oregon

Oregon Statehood

Osprey

Oregon Trail

And, from the wine label stuck on the back, a curious request...

Chocolate Packaging

For some reason, I enjoy turning chocolate (or carob bean chocolate) package into postcards. Of course, it has nothing to do with eating the chocolate first...

Sent to Bryon (USA), Laura (the UK) and Heleen (the Netherlands).

Greetings from the Keystone State

Pennsylvania-themed letter sent by Phillip (the USA). On the envelope, a non-Pennsylvanian wine label, that matches perfectly with Erie Harbor North Pier Light, with an unique design ("the tower tapers from its base to its midsection, then rises straight from there to the top")

Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens in Pittsburgh and a detailed map of the state.

And matching stamps: Erie Harbor Light and the state flag.

A week after this letter arrived, I got this postcard through the Postcrossing site, featuring Erie Land Light another one of the three Erie lighthouses.

Reuse!

Sent by Micu (Hungary).
