EVA Air B747-400 (Taiwan)

1945 Military aircraft (Russia)
The card was made in 2011 and mailed in 2013; it has pre-paid postage but another stamp (and full Moscow postmark) are placed over that. Much text on both sides, all in Russian. Grade: 1

Code: 30200492
Price: $3.00
Hindenburg and Titanic, Fire & Ice (USA)
A multi-faceted card, from the National Postal Museum of Washington DC’s Smithsonian. A circular chop on the reverse attests that the card was posted from the Museum, and this is alongside three stamps, two postmarks, and a blue USPS bilingual airmail label–and barcoding on both sides. Enough? Grade: 3

Code: 30200493
Price: $5.00
China Airlines Urumqi and Lijiang routes (Taiwan)
This 4-1/2″ x 6-7/8″ card introduces China Airlines (of Taiwan) new routes to Urumqi and Lijiang in PRC. We have four of these unused cards available, and as they all have a perforated upper edge, it’s clear they were distributed to cabin crew in booklet form, then given to customers on demand. Grades: 1

Code: 30200495
Price: $4.00
Die Kunst … Kunstflug (Austria)
Unused. Grade: 1

Code: 30200496
Price: $3.00
American Airlines DC-6 Blue Ribbon Aircoach
We remember having to dress up in a coat and tie to fly. Of course we remember when there was no internet, either. Or computers. Or … that’s as far as we want to go. Unused card. Grade: 1

Code: 30200497
Price: $4.00

Korean Air Lines, The Last Minutes of Flight 007
The ultimate disaster postcard, unused, explaining in great detail on both sides about the Russian shooting of this passenger plane in 1983. A Mike Roberts card CL-RR. #128 (SC18580). The card is beginning to show a little age. Grade: 2

Code: 30200499
Price: $6.00
Aeroflot Helicopter MI-10K
When we think of commercial airline postcards, we don’t often associate them with helicopters, but … it’s Aeroflot, so … a flimsy, unusual, unused card. Grade: 1

Code: 30200501
Price: $7.00
Boeing 787
We aren’t certain how to describe this card properly. It might be stock internet photography privately made into a postcard; we know it’s not from Boeing. There is a short caption in Ukrainian at the bottom that Google couldn’t handle. Mailed from Ukraine in 2013 with two stamps and partial postmark and quite a bit of postal ink smudging on both sides. Grade: 4

Code: 30200502
Price: $1.00
Anchorage, airport (Alaska)
Unused card. Grade: 1

Code: 30200503
Price: $2.00
Hornet-sarja (Finland)
The Finnish air force on a card mailed from Finland in 2013, with long “train” stamp, illegible postmark, Priority label affixed, round circular advertising chop, and postal ink transfer on the front. Something for everyone. Grade: 4

Code: 30200504
Price: $2.00
Cartoon airplane (Spain)
Mailed from Spain in 2013, with two stamps the postmark did not reach. Grade: 2

Code: 30200505
Price: $1.00
San Francisco, United Air Lines
Can we assume this postcard flew on United Airlines from the USA to Hong Kong? Either way, it got here, with round “Global Forever” stamp and readable postmark. Some postal abrasion on the reverse, not really major. Grade: 3

Code: 30200506
Price: $2.00
Boeings
Mailed from Netherlands in 2013, with (uncancelled) stamp and affixed address label. Grade: 4

Code: 30200507
Price: $1.00
Omsk, Pilot Alexander Vasilyev in 1911 (Russia)
Note carefully that this is not an old card, as indicated by the dates on the front. It measures 5″ x 7-3/8″ and was mailed from Omsk in 2013 with stamp and full postmark. Captions in three languages (including English) on the back. Grade: 2

Code: 30200508
Price: $3.00
Hapag-Lloyd Airbus A-300 B4 (D-AHLA)
Here’s what we found out about D-AHLA: the registration went to two different types of aircraft, but this one–assigned to the A300–started with Hapag Lloyd in 1979 but then in 1983 went to Pakistan International Airlines, where it was subsequently scrapped. The card has a German stamp and postmark, and trilingual Priority label, and also an address label. Grade: 4

Code: 30200509
Price: $5.00

Thai Royal Orchid Service
This is nice enough as a postcard, but it was mailed in 2013 with five large and superb examples of Thai stamps, along with multiple postmarks and Airmail label. If you have any doubt how good this is, ask for a scan of the reverse. Grade: 1

Stardust Resort & Casino (Las Vegas), and Western Pacific Airlines
Two sad business stories in one card (actually we have two of the unused cards). Western Pacific Airlines was famous for painting their jets in various logos, but the airline went bankrupt in 1998. As for the Stardust, it was demolished in March 2007. These two cards are notably aging, but at least they exist, unlike their namesakes. Grades: 2

Code: 30200520
Price: $12.00
