I have that postcard. Finding random things like that on ebay is fun, and they made quite a few variations with changes that never happened.

Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

Note:

We didn't finish the horseshoe because we ran out of money and a big war happened, that included a lot of countries, including nearly all of the ones in Europe.

well if that second post card's information is legit, there were plans to close the bowl as recently as the mid 70s.

I think that post card is older than you think.  They built BSFS in 1967-68.
