The top postcard, "The Fallen Monarch" shows how large the big trees are here.
The bottom left one is the only one postally used, and it is postmarked 1943. The others look to be from the same era.
The bottom one on the right says on the back-
"Wawona" in the Mariposa Grove of Bog Trees, about 4,000 years old, 227 feet high and 90 feet in circumference at the base, with a hole large enough to permit the widest and highest vehicle to pass through and ample room to spare on either side.
