Unused card MK 155 from 1997 (other cards also have this number) of the Nagano Winter Olympics.  Grade: 1

The postmark is clear but blends in too much into the stamps and congested unused card.  We think this is our first maximum card with two stamps on the front.  The back is mottling with age but for either rugby or maximum card enthusiasts, this is nice.  Grade: 2

We’ve seen very few maximum cards with two stamps on the front.  The back of this unused card is mottling with age, but for either rugby or maximum card enthusiasts, this is nice, along with others in the series.  Grade: 2

Sometimes we wonder why national philatelic units can’t stay closer to home.  Maybe Mr. Shepard looked down on Moldova as he passed overhead?  In any event, it’s not the postcard’s fault.  This was issued in 2011 and mailed in 2014, with another stamp and two postmarks on the back.  A nice addition to your collection of Outer Space postcards.  Grade: 1

Parts of all six unused cards are visible in the scan.  Captions in Korean and “scientific”.  Want to know what they are?  Egretta alba, Platalea minor, Ardea cinerea, Ciconia boyciana, Grus vipio, and Grus japonensis.  That will keep the search engines busy.  Grades: 1

We give credit to another website, stampboards dot com, for describing this unusual and creative item, which looks like a novelty postcard but is actually a SFr 5 mini souvenir sheet that can be played on a record player.  In maximum card style (but without the additional stamp), it seems to have a postmark but we should let you do your own research on this.  Phonograph record stamps have been around awhile, and that they look like postcards means they could probably be used as such.  To repeat:  this is NOT a Maximum Card in the normal definition.  Unused.  Grade: 1

Unused maximum card No. 2, issued on 27 April 1987, with extensive captions in Finnish and Swedish.  Grade: 1

According to this unused maximum card No. 26, issued on 10th May 1995, Timo Makinen was known as “Mr. Flying Finn” in rally driving and the first Finn to win the Monte Carlo Rally.  Grade: 1

According to this unused maximum card No. 28, issued on 10th May 1995, Tommi Ahvala was Trial World Champion in 1992.   Grade: 1

Maximum card issued in 1981.  It’s almost fully printed on the back, along with an extra inked message.  Grade: 4

A catchy subject for MC-97, issued in 2013 and unused.  Bilingual caption in Chinese and English, with a small smudge of postmark ink transfer on the reverse, caused by stacking.  We don’t downgrade because of this.  Grade: 1

Unused maximum card no. 10, issued on 12th June 1999, of Panthera uncia from southeastern Asia.  Grade: 1

Keräilymessut in Finnish means collectibles fair, and that’s the only information on the back of this unused maximum card (issued on 30th January 1982) apart from what we see in the multiple postmarks.  We say “multiple postmarks” because what you see on the front is only part of the story.  On the back, there’s the same stamp and two more postmarks–one on the stamp, one to the left of it.  So in a way this is a “Super-Maximum” card.  Grade: 1
