Back when I started doing a wallet card in January 2015, I mentioned that I would take requests for locations in or around midtown Manhattan or Long Island. (Still happy to do so.) The first request came from Unclemoe of the 2008 Topps Set Blog, who asked for the Carnegie Deli. That ended up being one of my first wallet card posts.
The Carnegie Deli closed at the end of 2016, and its iconic sign is gone. I figured I would do a follow-up Wallet Card photo with the now-former Carnegie Deli. The sign is gone, the windows are boarded up, and the wallet card looks a lot worse for wear two years later.

Bummer! I didn't know they closed. At least Katz's is still around.
