For Sale By Public Tender (Hong Kong)
It may not be unique to Hong Kong, but is definitely distinctive, that the (possibly forced) sale of one single flat is marketed through mass mailing.

As with other, similar cards, this is fully printed on both sides, nearly entirely in Chinese except for fine print–which itself is extraordinarily fine. Grade: 1

E.P. Wilbur Trust Company (Pennsylvania, USA)
Really nice old (1910) ad card, mailed with indistinct postmark, and the stamp is still there. We were especially taken with the offer of 3% interest on savings accounts. By today’s standards, go for it! Grade: 1

Perhaps I Should Abstain (Clarke and Mulcaire) (Australia)

Code: 30100606

Having a moment with my street (Hong Kong)
This is an ad card for two F&B outlets in Swire Properties’ “Star Street Precinct” of Wanchai. Looks good, right? All of that building you see on the right, with Classified and Pizza Express, is now gone — pulled down by Swire and to be replaced with something undoubtedly much larger. (We live nearby, and see daily changes.) Mailed with three different stamps and two postmarks. Grade: 1

Turkish Airlines (Hong Kong)
This ad card was mailed to Hong Kong residents (using Hongkong Post’s English-language Circular Service postage imprint) in late 2018 for a contest linked with the opening of Istanbul’s new airport. The point is to write your New Year’s wish and post the card back to a local (HK) address for a chance of winning a trip. But that’s not all! There are terms and conditions! Including one that will winnow out quite a few potential entrants. Above all, be “stylish”. Grade: 1

Working Holiday Scheme – Australia (Hong Kong)
When we first came to Hong Kong and encountered local use of the word “scheme,” we were surprised, as the meanings of this term do vary greatly across countries. But this one is legitimate, and earlier entries in our site appear for earlier versions of the scheme. Anyway this plan is sponsored by Hong Kong Government’s Labour Department, and broad rules are in the caption on the back of the 2020 card. Unused, and two are available. Grade: 1

Code: 30100610

Price: $1.00
Buvez Coca-Cola (Canada)
An unused, official card from 1997, reproducing a 1947 point-of-sale display for the Canadian market. It’s an advertisement, but not an ad card per se. Grade: 1

Price: $2.00
Pizza Hut (Hong Kong)
The card measures 5-7/8″ x 8-1/4″, is fully printed on both sides, and was mailed to Hong Kong residents using Hongkong Post’s Chinese-language Circular Service imprint. Pizza Hut in Hong Kong gets more creative. We await a version with chicken feet. Grade: 1

Code: 30100631
Price: $2.00
Aukro (Czech Republic)
As far as we can tell, from far away, Aukro seems to be the eBay of the Czech Republic. Then Google translates the legend on the front of the card as “We carry out your collectibles”. Close enough. The card was mailed in 2020 from Prague, with stamp and blue Prioritaire label. Grade: 1

Code: 30100633

Under the circumstances, they chose well. This card measures 6″ x 8-3/4″, was mailed in 2021, and has Hongkong Post’s bilingual Circular Service imprint. “Exempted” means residents receive this bulk mailing whether they opted out or not. Grade: 1

Bass-Hueter Paint Company, and Grover Cleveland (USA)
Yes, an ancient ad card, and so much more. The sales pitch fills the message area, and the card was mailed in 1911 with stamp and full San Francisco postmark. Contents on the front, punctuated by President Cleveland, make this a genuine historical relic, worth every penny. Grade: 1
