Price: $2.00

Mailed in Wisconsin in 1917, this card has two stamps, full postmark on the reverse, and–as you see–much of one on the front, too. Grade: 4

Code: 38000043
Price: $2.00

Postally unused, with the greeting pencilled on the reverse. (This could be erased fairly easily if you felt like it.) Grade: 4

Code: 38000048

As the Wise Men came
Mailed in 1927, the postmark remains though the stamp is gone. However, there’s a 1927 Tuberculosis Society Christmas Seal, unmarked in the left corner. Grade: 4

Code: 38000049
Price: $2.00
Wishes are only words
Anyone sending a card like this was making some kind of a statement. In 1913, Bud pencilled a message to Kitty, but it wasn’t sent through the mail. Unusually, this card is attributed: Gottschalk Dreyfuss and Davis (New York), Produced in England. Grade: 4

Code: 38000050

Wishing you a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year (booklet)
Bear with us, this will take several words to describe. It’s a soft-cover booklet measuring about 4″ x 5-1/4″, undated but very old, published by Kelly & Walsh (of Shanghai, Hongkong, Singapore, and Yokohama) and Collotypes by K. Ogawa. Entitled “A Christmas Carmen,” there are many B&W photos of old Shanghai interspersed with blank pages. Facing pages are either in English only, or bilingual English and Chinese. There’s a written gift inscription inside. As an unusual combination of Christmas, history, opera, and China, this is a curiosity indeed. Ungraded, but if it was a postcard we would probably give it Grade: 2

Code: 38000052
Price: $29.00

A card for many categories, this was mailed in 2011 with Aurora borealis stamp and full postmark. Grade: 1

Code: 38000053
