  • Greetings from The Date Empire (California)

    Unused “local” card 54964-2 (FS-197) explaining some things about the Coachella Valley and Palm Springs.  Allow us a small digression.  Way back in the Dark Ages, on rare trips through the Southern California desert, we would see roadside stands selling date shakes.  This was soooooooo exotic and in that heat they were soooooooo good.  Maybe those stands or their successors are still there, but we aren’t.  A chicken feet milkshake just isn’t the same.  Grade: 1

  • Greetings from Tijuana, Mexico

    Mailed in the USA (not Mexico!) in 1976 with a US stamp and two different postmarks.  Back in the day when day-trips to TJ were a common and pleasant diversion for Southern Californians, it was easy enough to find the postcards but nearly impossible to get them mailed from there.  There were more pressing tasks than finding a stamp.  Grade: 4

    Captions on the reverse, from an era spanning “South West Africa” and “Namibia”, identify Bushman, Ovambo, and Herero groups.  The used card itself is in poor condition, with a vertical fold, and the stamp is missing.  A small bit of unreadable postmark remains.  Grade: 5

  • Greetings from La Union Botanical Garden (Philippines)

    Just for fun–and for the search engines–we will tell you what the unused 2002 card tells us:  the scientific or local names of these plants:  Licuala Grandis H. Wendl, Livistona Rutundifolia, and Anahaw.  Now, Licuala grandis is the Ruffled Fan Palm, Vanuatu Fan Palm or Palas Palm, a species of palm tree in the Arecaceae family, and native to Vanuatu.  Livistona rutundifolia is also known as the Table Palm, Footstool Palm, and Fan Palm, and is the same as Anahaw.  Confused?  Don’t be.  We just extract this kind of information from time to time, and then move on.  Minor edge bumping.  Grade: 2

  • Greetings from Chicago O’Hare International Airport (USA)

    Unused Dexter Press card DT-12485-D, serrated edges, dated 1974.  It’s probably true that O’Hare was the busiest airport then, but now it only ranks sixth by one measure (behind Atlanta and Beijing, among others), even though measuring “busiest airport” is as thankless a task as measuring “tallest building”.  Grade: 1

  • San Francisco, Chinatown (folio) (California)

    Greetings from San Francisco Chinatown, in this fold-out folio of pictures from a Stanley A. Piltz “Pictorial Wonderland” item D-4291, unused.  Technically these are not postcards because the photos are on both sides of the paper, and these include (among others) The Soothsayer, Picturesque Costumes, Chinese Telephone Exchange, Bulletin of Latest News, Fortune Teller, Tin How Temple Interior, and a “Golden Dragon” parade of good luck.  This would be the iconic postcard-style representation of one of the world’s most famous Chinatowns.  As a bonus, the inside cover has a long story about the area and its attractions.   Grade: 1
