SMITHALO Alright, class… A JACKALOPE is a cross between what two animals? Jack Rabbit and Antelope. A SMITHALO is a cross between what two animals? Read on. “Smithalo” the 60-ton rock, concrete & steel monument, measuring 23 ft. long and 15-1/4 ft. high, which pays tribute to the American bison or buffalo, was constructed by brothers, Ray O. and Chester Smith in 1977 & 1978. Dedicated July 2, 1978, attended by 3,000 guests, it is located 7 mi. southwest of Longford in eastern Ottawa County, Kansas. This postcard was born after the BAD POSTCARDS time period I have set for this Tumblr (1950 - 1975). I acquired it this weekend and was sure it was at least 10 years older. It’s such a great card. I couldn’t resist.
