Code: 32300024
Price: $2.00
Carling Brewing Company, R. McGill Mackall painting
Unused H.S. Crocker card, unnumbered. Lest you think one of these persons is Betsy Ross, the caption doesn’t suggest that: “a little-known moment in American history–which took place in a Baltimore brewery (now Carling Brewery Company), where the stars were put on the flag that inspired Francis Scott Key …” and if you’re American you know the rest. Grade: 2

Code: 32300025

Amphibious Bicycle and Guinness (Greetings from Ireland)
Doesn’t seem like it would, but this card fits into several of our categories. Two similar cards are available. One is unused and has “Greetings from Ireland” in 13 languages on the reverse (Grade: 1, $4). The other must have been from a different print run, as it was mailed in 2013 with minimal caption, three stamps, partial postmark, blue Air Mail sticker, and orange postal bar coding, along with abrasion on upper right front (Grade: 4, $1).

Code: 32300030
Price: $4.00

Code: 32300032
Price: $4.00
Pabst Brewing Company, Tumwater (Washington, USA)
All right. The front of this unused card 8304 clearly shows “Olympia Brewing Company,” while the reverse caption discusses “Pabst Brewing Company.” Olympia was acquired by Pabst in 1983, but this still looks strange. Grade: 1

Code: 32300033

Code: 32300034

A folded postcard, of which this scan shows one extended side. The other side does say “Post Card”, and has a stamp, a 1954 postmark, and a pencilled message from a very young child to his grandpa. This has been heavily handled, clearly with a lot of love, over the years. Grade: 4

Code: 32300035
Price: $8.00
Kvass recipe (Russia)
One helpful thing about this Russian internet card is that it’s all in English, including the instructions. Mailed from Siberia in 2012 with two impressive stamps and postmark, along with some postmark ink transfer on the front. Grade: 3

Code: 32300036
Price: $3.00

Code: 32300039
Price: $4.00

Price: $1.00

This card was made in France and mailed from Germany, with stamp and partly legible postmark. Grade: 2

Code: 32300041

Would be right at home framed over your bar. British humour, old card with creased lower right corner but that just gives it character. There’s a handwritten message on the back though the card was never mailed. Grade: 4

Code: 32300042
Price: $4.50
