It’s been a while since we’ve had an entry into [our Postcard series](/tag/postcard/), but good things come to those who wait. This dynamic piece captures a diver in midair over what the postcard calls “Stillwater Lagoon” in Manhattan Beach. While we know the Blackstone Hotel had a lagoon, and that would certainly fit given the timeline (1923 postmark), we’re not sure if that’s the one shown here. Regardless – we appreciate that[ this eBay seller](http://cgi.ebay.com/POSTCARD-MANHATTAN-BEACH-BROOKLYN-NY-/330482103242?ref=bklyner.com) put it up. We’ve got another cool one for you tomorrow.
