Colorized postcard of Ballymarlyn Castle, Castlemarlyn, Ireland — ivy-clad castle ruin reflected in a pond, a scarce Irish topographical subject. Printed in the United Kingdom.

A philatelically interesting piece with four stamps — three red 1¢ stamps and one green 1¢ Franklin — likely reflecting postage assessment on a transatlantically mailed card, with both New York & Washington RPO cancel and Baltimore receiving cancel present.
