These beautifully reproduced postcards, whose images are among those included in The World Trade Center Remembered paperback book, portray the majesty of the Twin Towers from all directions.

For New Yorkers and visitors alike, the Trade Center was a compass point rising dramatically above other skyscrapers at the tip of Manhattan. For more than two decades, practically since the Twin Towers were erected, Sonja Bullaty and Angelo Lomeo photographed these awesome buildings. There are captivating panoramas from Brooklyn, Lower Manhattan, New Jersey, and uptown, taken in all seasons, as well as a section showing the vibrant life in the grand plaza at the center of the buildings.

A portion of the book's proceeds are donated to the Twin Towers Scholarship Program care of Scholarship America.
