  • Covered bridge

    This unused Don Sieburg card 45083-B (sure looks like a Dexter Press number) is a nice addition to a collection of covered bridge cards, and would be even nicer if we were told which bridge it is (was). But we know it’s in Vermont. Grade: 1

  • Quechee Gorge

    One of those rare cards that assumes you know where such a place is, so doesn’t tell you.  We didn’t know, so we looked it up.  Unless there are two with the same name, this is in Vermont.  Dexter Press card 46459-C (and V-3684) has serrated edges and was mailed in 1973 with 8-cent Osteopathic Medicine stamp and full postmark.  Grade: 1

  • Shelburne, Ticonderoga and Colchester Reef Light House

    There’s a lot in this unused Mike Roberts card C8364 (and VT772).  Best just to quote the caption:  “Famous sidewheeler Ticonderoga and Colchester Reef Lighthouse both brought from Lake Champlain to Shelburne Museum”.  Maybe the Ticonderoga brought the lighthouse?  Grade: 1

  • Burlington, Ethan Allen Tower

    With the perforated lower edge, this card came from a set.  Many years ago, someone planned to write the card to the Whites in Durham, got the address on there and started the message.  What happened then?  We’ll never know.  Grade: 4

  • Bennington, Oldest Stars and Stripes Flag in Existence

    This flag was used at the Battle of Bennington in 1777 and if the card’s caption is still correct, is now at the Bennington Historical Museum.  We’ve not checked.  Unused card.  Grade: 1

    Greetings from Stowe – Mt. Mansfield

  • Bennington, Battle Monument

    The elaborate caption barely left room for the message on this card mailed in 1939, with stamp and postmark.  As for the monument itself, “The highest Battle Monument in the world” (306+ feet).  Wonder if that’s still true?  Grade: 2

    Code: 10146033

    Price: $2.00

    Bennington, Battle Monument

  • Montpelier, Vermont State Capitol

    Unused “local” card with a detailed caption.  (Side note:  it’s amusing that this is the third Capitol structure there; the first was wood, and the second was granite.  Guess which one was destroyed by fire in 1857?)  Grade: 1

  • Montpelier, Main Street, looking South

    This is a nice card, mailed in the winter of 1918 with two stamps and two postmarks.  Why do we like this postcard in particular?  It can be hard to say that any one card or another captures its own era perfectly, but this one–with its message and artwork and everything else manages to do that.  Grade: 1

  • Stowe, Mt. Mansfield, Summit

  • Plymouth, Calvin Coolidge Homestead

    This postcard dates itself as 1923 (or later) and because of its pristine, unused condition, it would be easy to think this was a reproduction.  We genuinely believe it to be an original card because the printing style on the reverse is similar to other cards of that era.   Regardless, if you are searching for a Calvin Coolidge postcard (and who isn’t?), here it is, right here waiting for you.  Grade: 1

    Code: 10146039

  • Lake Bomoseen, Prospect House Park and Golf Course

    Unused Curteich-Chicago C.T. Art-Colortone card 3A-H1025 (78LB).  Poor Lake Bomoseen, subject to various flora and fauna invasions over the years.  We’re not certain if this golf course is still there, but it’s an attractive if mildly aging postcard.  Grade: 1

  • Barre, North Main Street

    Nice representation of main street postcards, this was mailed in 1931, with stamp and postmark and the usual semi-legible handwriting that should have left the recipient scratching her head.  Grade: 3

    Price: $3.00

  • Burlington, Burlington High School

    Our quick Wikipedia search brought up this:  “Burlington High School is a public high school … BHS’ current campus is its fourth. Two of the former buildings still exist, one as the Edmunds Elementary and Middle School complex while the second one, used in the late 1800s, is now a private residence.”  So what you see on our unused Tichnor Bros. card 77626 is now the elementary school.  Grade: 1
