  • Royal Canadian Mounted Police (Maniwaki, Quebec)

    Looks to be a generic card overstamped with the Maniwaki location.  Mailed in 1955 with stamp and blurry but readable postmark, the message from dad to his children is fun to read.  Grade: 2

  • Fingerprint Greetings (Finland)

    That’s part of what’s in the caption.  The card’s sender gently explains that the card comes from a police exhibition stand that tries to tell children that police work is nice and worth considering.  Lucky Finland!  Mailed with Aurora borealis stamp and Priority label.  Grade: 2

  • From Moscow with Love!

    The front is as you see.  Maybe he is just Security and not police, but close enough.  It’s hard to describe the reverse:  mailed with four stamps, three large postmarks, rubber-stamped ID number, and address label affixed.  Well, I guess we just described it.  Grade: 3

  • Poliisi – Otto (Finland)

    We’re not sure what to make of this, but it is definitely not a Zazzle template and not an internet card.  The dog is saying “Hey, I’m Otto, who are you?”.  This card was mailed in 2013 with two stamps–neither one postmarked–and Priority label.  In the lower left corner is a box called “Sormenjälki-terveisin” (Fingerprint regards) and, sure enough, a fingerprint is inside.  That’s the whole idea, apparently.  Grade: 4

  • Singapore Police Force – ad card
