  • Bornholm, Klippeparti ved Rø

    A card that somehow manages to look much older than it actually is, even though 1928 is old enough.  Very heavily aged and browned into sepia, it was mailed in the USA (not Denmark) in 1928 with a 1-cent stamp and postmark.  However the card went to the wrong place, a “Missent” chop was added, along with another postmark from “Chi. & Evans R.P.O.”  Anyway, Carrie told John she brought the card back from Europe earlier.  Grade: 4

    Code: 20515027

  • Kobenhavn, Rosenborg Slot

    Known in English as Rosenborg Castle, a renaissance castle originally built as a country summerhouse in 1606 as an example of Christian IV’s architectural projects. It was built in the Dutch Renaissance style, typical during this period, and has been expanded several times, evolving into its present condition by 1624.  This unused old sepia card has notable foxing on the reverse, and a perforated edge indicating that it had been part of a set long ago.  Grade: 2

  • Copenhagen, Langelinie, The Little Mermaid

    Unlike some cards that make it seem like this iconic statue juts way out into the water, here’s a different perspective.  All we know is that the poor girl has had more than one head since this photo was taken.  The unmailed card’s front is good; on the back, an inked 1971 date and a short message from Ulfa.  Grade: 3

    Code: 20515036

  • Copenhagen, Little Mermaid

    Often when we enter a postcard of Copenhagen’s iconic statue, we remark that we couldn’t tell you which version she is.  That’s only because it had so often been vandalized, or stolen, or something.  But she lives forever on this unused postcard.  Grade: 1
