About This Item

A commerative pin in the shape of a 25 cent Postage Stamp, honoring the fallen Old Man of the Mountain.

The Old Man of the Mountain, also known as the Great Stone Face or the Profile, was a series of five granite cliff ledges on Cannon Mountain in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, USA that, when viewed from the correct angle, appeared to be the jagged profile of a face. The outcrop was 1,200 feet (370 m) above Profile Lake, and measured 40 feet (12 m) tall and 25 feet (7.6 m) wide.

The first recorded mention of the Old Man was in 1805, although it was presumably known to locals before that. It collapsed on May 3, 2003

    We retreived this TB during our travel back from our summer holiday.
    Now the TB is in the frankonian region in the northern part of bavaria - Germany.

    I try to place it near the next airport to bring him back to the US.
