1960 Vintage Postcard QSL Card YN1CP  from "Col HF Parker" US Embassy, Managua 
 
An uncommon green colored card stock with the amateur radio call letters printed in green, and handwritten notes and message regarding an attempted patch and a call to Col Parker's family in the states. 
If anyone remembers, that back in the 60's (before cell phones), International calls were not only expensive but not easily made. It wasn't just a matter of picking up a phone and dialing a number.
 
Features a 35 cent Nicaragua Cardinal Spellman postage stamp (one of a set of commemorative postage stamps issued).
 
A small piece of history.
 
CONDITION: No pin holes rips or tears. Edges and corners show some signs of wear and discoloration.
The postmark is smeared, but the US Embassy, Managua postal message is clear and readable. 
The 35 cent Nicaragua Cardinal Spellman postage stamp is clean and not obscured by the postal cancel stamp.
