Old Postcard: Waverly Hills Sanitorium, Louisville


I will have to write more about Waverly Hills in Louisville, probably around October, but I thought I would put up a scan of this cool postcard.

Thanks to the "Ghost Hunters" TV show (and other similar shows) this Kentucky landmark has recently become very famous as a haunted site.

I collect old postcards of asylums, state hospitals, and sanitariums, where may I ask did you find this? I've been looking for one forever.

Hey Erin, good to hear from ya! I bought that one several years ago... I think I bought it at a stamp show in Lexington, but I am not totally sure. There is a GREAT stamp shop in Louisville that has a LOT of old postcards (Collectors Stamp Ltd.). Those guys have a LOT of great Kentucky and Louisville postcards. Have you checked there?
