From the Series:

The bulk of the collection is described in this series, in alphabetical order by the descriptive information given on the card. Where another later or earlier name is know for the building or view, a cross reference is given under that name. For example, cards published the “Pantlind Hotel” will be under “Pantlind”, while later buildings on the same site, such as the “Amway Grand”, will by listed under “Amway”. A see or see also note to the earlier or later building is usually given.



Researchers can also search the list for their subject listed under alternative heading by using a key word search within the document. Thus, postcards which include multiple views and/or may be described under a general heading, my have the specific heading listed elsewhere under that general heading.
