USA: State map of New Mexico

After all the holiday craziness and traveling, I received four postcards in my mail few days ago from Switzerland, USA, Poland, and Germany.

This postcard features a cartoon map of the state of New Mexico (NM). New Mexico is located in the southwestern region of US, and joined the country as the 47th state in 1912. Although the state capital of NM is Santa Fe, the largest city is Albuquerque, which is also the city where Breaking Bad took place.

Other than showing the cities, the lower left hand corner of the card also introduce other state facts. Road runner as the state bird; Black Bear as the state animal, and the yucca as the state flower.

This is such a colorful card showing this beautiful state. It makes me want to collect all other state map that's in the country.

This card also had two very special stamps that seem to be from awhile ago. The slogan on the stamps say "Save Woodland Habitats" and "Save Mountain Habitats" respectively.
