  • Valley Springs, Rancho Calaveras (California)

    An advertising card, professionally prepared and mailed (as this one was) with Bulk Rate pre-printed postage.  The caption — being advertising, after all — is extensive and persuasive.  We were curious, and checked online, to find it still exists as a “census-designated place”, whatever that means, and one source wrote:  “When it was created in the 1960s, Rancho Calaveras was the largest residential subdivision in the state of California.”  For the postcard, Grade: 3

  • Samuel Good

    We weren’t certain how to present this postcard, so we decided to try something different.  You’re seeing the reverse.  (On the front, a conventional photo from years ago of the Washington Monument.)  We think Mr. Good had stock supplies of this and similar cards; or maybe that he was offering to duplicate existing cards a customer might send him for reproduction.  You can figure that out, but this is a novelty and you might be interested.  We suspect he is no longer in business, though.  Usual grading does not apply, for obvious reasons.  Grade: 1

  • Duetto (Hong Kong)

    Duetto in Wanchai may or may not open again, who knows, but back in 2011 when this card was mailed with Hongkong Post’s English-language Circular Service imprint, the Italian/Indian menu on the other side looked alluring enough.  Grade: 1

  • Kilroy Travels (Finland)

    Youth and student travel from a Finnish group, on a card mailed in 2021 with stamp, but the clear postmark is at the bottom reverse, not over the stamp.  Grade: 2

  • Street Sup, Skate Yoga

    An Australian company but this card was mailed from Indonesia in 2021 — stamp, postmark, and attitude.  Grade: 3

  • The Dear God Campaign

    We’ve no idea at all what this is all about, and the card gives no clues.  Neither, for that matter, does Google.  The card looks as if it originated in Philippines, and was mailed from there with both a stamp and a postage meter in 2021.  Only God knows, and He’s not telling.  Grade: 1

  • Clarke Quay, Traders’ Market (Singapore)

    Mailed in 2014 with stamp and clear postmark.  Over time, this card would be fun to own.  Your ancestors will thank you for it.  Grade: 1
