Postcard: Vintage color illustration of the Liberty Bell displayed on a wooden stand inside Independence Hall, Philadelphia. The bell’s iconic crack and engraved inscription are clearly visible, emphasizing its historical significance as a symbol of American independence.

Justification of Maximum Concordance:
There is strong thematic concordance because both the stamp and the postcard feature the Liberty Bell, an enduring symbol of American independence. The postcard shows the bell inside Independence Hall in Philadelphia, emphasizing its historical context, while the stamp reproduces the same iconic object. Geographic concordance is partial: the First Day of Issue cancellation is from Miami, Florida, which differs from the bell’s actual location in Philadelphia. However, the temporal concordance is perfect, as the cancellation date matches the official issue date. Overall, this card meets thematic and temporal requirements for a maximum card, with geographic concordance limited to the country level.
