Default Most Unique T206 Card With a Building or Stadium in the Background.

After collecting 49 T206 cards, and viewing every card in the set, I have realized some cards have very interesting backgrounds with buildings or stadiums in them. Which card(s) with these buildings/stadiums do you find the most unique? Please feel free to share the images of the card.

Default stadium background...........

Here's a few T206's with stadium backgrounds. I think my favorites are Al Burch, Del Howard and Orval Overall (the Joss is no longer mine).

Default buildings

This one always looked out of place to me...doesn't look much like a "baseball" related building in the background

That building is really weird-looking - kind of Stonehenge-ish.

@TheBig6 Although it is not a t206 card, it is an obviously beautiful card!
