    Sunset
  • Nassau, two wheel cart

    Price: $8.50

    Price: $5.00

    Nassau, Seafloor Aquarium
  • Exumas, Ocean Beach

    Unused but aging card R22547, whose caption says “Undoubtedly one of the few virgin beaches left in the world.”  Never mind that the photo has people in it … and if that claim was true in the 1950s when this card was probably printed, there’s no hope left for us now.  Grade: 3

    Code: 20704005

    Price: $5.00

    Exumas, Ocean Beach
  • Freeport, Holiday Inn

    For hardcore Holiday Inn postcard collectors, this card was mailed in 1972 and the stamp is there, but multiple postmarks and parts of postmarks have made a mess on both sides, and there are abrasions.  Nevertheless, if this is the last of the properties you need … here it is!  Grade: 4

    Code: 20704006

    Price: $4.00

    Freeport, Holiday Inn
  • Nassau, Government House (Bahamas)

    Someone had a great holiday in 1955 and wrote this card while on their way home to the USA.  The card was mailed from New York with stamp and postmark.  Grade: 3

    Code: 20704007

    Price: $3.00

    Nassau, Government House (Bahamas)
  • Nassau, The Governor’s Mansion

    Mailed in 1981 with stamp and postmark.  Showing its age, but otherwise clean.  Grade: 2

    Code: 20704009

    Price: $6.00

    Nassau, The Governor’s Mansion
  • Freeport, Beach Area of the Famous King’s Inn Hotel

    Is this now the Bell Channel Inn?  Trying to learn exactly what happened with King’s Inn is a real challenge.  Happily, we don’t need to go there–so to speak.  We have two of these unused Plastichrome cards P78456.  One has some light smudging on the reverse (Grade: 2, $3) and the other a quarter-inch tear on the right edge (Grade: 4, $1).

    Code: 20704010

    Price: $3.00

    Are any left, in those crystal waters?  Unused, aging but unmarked card.  Grade: 2

    Ocean Cay
  • Freeport / Grand Bahama Island

    These map postcards often compel us to place a card in multiple theme categories, and this one is no exception.  Unused, it’s more a map of Grand Bahama than just of Freeport but it’s also just the type of card we would like if someone mailed it to us.  We went to Nassau once.  For four hours.  Grade: 1

    Code: 20704018

    Price: $5.00

    Freeport / Grand Bahama Island
