-

-

Nice example of an early, embossed Easter card–mailed in 1918 from Colorado to Texas with two stamps and postmark. Grade: 2
-
Best Easter Wishes
Unmailed old card, made in Germany. The front looks OK. The reverse has a pencilled notation and is heavily water stained–not evident on the front. Grade: 4
-
Easter greeting … From a Goose
Floppy leather postal, mailed in 1907 according to the postmark. The stamp is long gone, if there ever was one, and the original message is on the front. The address on reverse has faded away, but there are extra ink markings. We just put it out here for you if you want it. Grade: 5
-
Wesołego Alleluja (Poland)
Unused, vintage card. Grade: 1
-
Easter Sunrise in Denver Red Rocks Amphitheater (Colorado, USA)
Unused, slightly aging. Grade: 1
-
May choy abide Mit you, dear friend
Here’s a card from the artist Bernhardt Wall that is surprisingly not at all well represented in Google search. The one source everyone seems to use says it was issued in 1913. Ours was mailed, with stamp and indistinct postmark, so we can’t quite make out when it was sent. Beaten up but undeniably authentic. Grade: 4
-

-
Easter Greetings
Mailed in 1909 to Lulu, with the message “Now who do you think sent this,” and we suppose Lulu Knew Who. Stamp, postmark, embossed. A nicely aged representative of its specific category. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greeting
An embossed card, mailed in 1909 with stamp and postmark but somehow managing to look 100 years younger than that. Very faint postmark transfer on the front. Grade: 2
-
Easter Greetings
It is pure coincidence that we are entering this card into the website on the day before Easter. It’s a nice, old (1910), classic embossed postcard mailed from one cousin to another. Stamp and clear postmark are there. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greetings
Unused, embossed, old postcard in superb condition for its age. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greeting
In 1908, Amelia received this embossed card (with stamp and Iowa postmark) and if she was lucky, or clever, or both, she could read the message. This item is about as iconic as you can find, for Easter postcards. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greeting. (USA)
Old, embossed card mailed in 1907 (we think), with stamp and postmark but, somewhat surprisingly, no message. Grade: 1
-
A happy Easter (USA)
An Easter postcard of extremes. Where to start? First, it’s heavily embossed and glittered. Next, it was not postally used: the message to “Dear Father and Mother” from Adam covers the entire reverse, where he explains he didn’t know where to send the card. Finally, we are making a grading exception because all this writing on both sides makes the card what it is. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greetings (USA)
Embossed card, mailed in 1909 … postmark is there but part of the stamp was torn off. Grade: 4
-
Easter Joys (USA)
Embossed card, mailed from Philadelphia in 1915, with stamp and fully readable postmark. We think, apart from the card being in excellent condition, it’s notable because it went from Cousin Vera to Cousin Vera. Grade: 1
-
Happy Easter!
Mailed in 1911, with stamp and Illinois postmark. Grade: 1
-
A Peaceful Easter
Unused, embossed, aged, old, divided-back card from the Anglo New Art Series. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greetings
Mailed in Canada with stamp and postmark that aggressively doesn’t want us to know what year it was … otherwise a slightly austere Easter postcard in fine condition. Due to all the postmarks, Grade: 3
-
Much happiness at Easter
Unused, unmarked, embossed, shiny old card. Grade: 1
-
Sincere Easter Greetings
In 1914, Mother passed this embossed card to daughter May. Now we can pass it to you. Not postally used. Grade: 3
-
A Happy Easter
Mailed in 1908, with clear postmark, and the stamp is still there. This embossed card has a name down in the lower right front corner — we assume a person wrote that in but it fits nicely into the design, so we’re not certain. Anyway, and only because of that, we assign Grade: 3.
-
Easter Happiness
Raphael Tuck & Sons “Easter Post Cards” series No. 702, embossed, mailed from one sister to another in Michigan in 1909. Stamp and full postmark are there, making this an eminently collectible Easter postcard. (“Gleam, ye starry train!”??) Grade: 1
-
Easter Greetings
Looking slightly emaciated, these sheep (we think they’re sheep) grace a card mailed in USA in 1911. The stamp and postmark are there. Grade: 1
-

-
All Easter Joys Be Yours
Embossed like most of these antique postcards, and mailed in Indiana in 1910 (the postmark shows 4:30 AM) with the stamp also still in place. Grade: 1
-
Easter Greeting
Mailed in 1913, the stamp and postmark are there and clear on this embossed, aged card. Grade: 2
-
1905
This is an embossed, undivided back postcard addressed faintly but not postally used. Mama kindly indicated the year on the front, and because of that we will reward her by assigning Grade: 1
