The miniature paper landmarks depicted in Build Your Own Chicago and Build Your Own New York postcards published by Wurlington Press are designed in a variety of scales, depending on what will fit in the limited size of a postcard format. However, many of the miniatures are built to the same scale as other postcard models, which allows interesting comparisons when two completed paper models are placed side-by-side. Here is a complete list of all our postcard paper models and downloadable free models by scale:
