  • Greetings from Penang Bird Park (Malaysia)

    These are Dalmatian Pelicans (“Undan Gangsa” in Malay). Two cards are available.  One was mailed in 1991 with Pulau Pinang stamp but only partly legible postmark (Grade: 2, $2) and the other would be a great, mailed card but for an abrasion on the bottom caused by the cancellation machine, not an uncommon problem on Malaysian postcards (Grade: 3, $2).

  • Greetings from Tambun Inn (Ipoh, Malaysia)

    At the time we got the card (1980s) it called the Tambun Inn “Ipoh’s most prestigious hotel.” Wonder if that is still true? Unused. The scan cuts a little bit off the lowest caption. Grade: 3

    Code: 30800155

    Price: $4.00

    Greetings from Tambun Inn (Ipoh, Malaysia)
  • Greetings from Thailand

    Our only quibble about this unused, modern card is that the photo is about as far away from normal Thailand as it is possible to get. Maybe that’s the attraction to it? Grade: 1

    Code: 30800156

    Price: $3.00

    Greetings from Thailand

    New Orleans, Greetings
  • Greetings from 4 Corners

    We are assigning different Four Corners cards to each of the four states, even though it’s just been reported the actual location is a few miles away. Won’t that be fun to relocate. Unused card from the 1960s, aging a bit and with serrated edges. Grade: 2

    Price: $3.00

    Greetings from the Penna. Dutch Country

    These cards were reluctant to say “Greetings” on the front so they put it all on the back. This is unused Dexter Press card 83908-B. Grade: 1

    Code: 30800163

    Price: $3.00

    Greetings from The Amish Country
  • Snowbound stream, greetings

    Two of these unused cards are available. The scene may or may not be in Minnesota (probably not too far away) but we know Bob’s Sport Chalet was up there somewhere because we dropped in. It is not likely that many of Bob’s customers were writing postcards, but some did. Grades: 1

  • Kenya

    Price: $4.00

  • Greetings from London

    This card has flaws but at the same time it covers the waterfront, so to speak, quite well.  It was mailed in 1953.  The stamp is there, but not postmarked, and instead the post office scrawled over that stamp.  Some minor, almost invisible creasing.  The best thing, of course, is that all those views are identified.  Grade: 3

    Code: 30800168T

    Price: $4.00

  • Greatings (sic) from Mongolia – Riding a horse

    In this case, there’s no doubt the caption on the reverse is wrong:  “Herder family in the countryside.  A father with sons.”  That, and the other typo, just adds to the charm of this unused card.  Grade: 1

    Code: 30800173

    Price: $9.00

    Greatings (sic) from Mongolia – Riding a horse
  • Pigeons

    This European card was mailed from somewhere in the USA (in 1908, clear postmarked date but no city) with a Franklin one-cent stamp.  We’re not quite able to decipher the artist’s name on the front, though we tried all the potential combinations of letters.  Grade: 2

  • Greatings (sic) from Mongolia – The Mongolian winter

    There is such a sincerity to these captions:  “The Mongolian winter normally ends in March, but can continue till May.”  Yes, we bet it can.  Unused card.  Grade: 1

    Code: 30800176

    Price: $9.00

    Greatings (sic) from Mongolia – The Mongolian winter
  • Greatings (sic) from Mongolia – Herd of horses crossing a pond

    The caption on this unused card is clearly wrong, as it refers to camel herders and hand knitted carpets.  Never mind!  Grade: 1

  • Bournemouth, Studland, The Beach (England)

    “Greetings from Bournemouth” on a real-photo postcard that manages to make The Beach less than inviting.  But the card itself:  fine, mailed in 1953 with stamp and exceptionally clear postmark.  Grade: 1
