Key West, Casa Marina Hotel
Card mailed in 1986, with two heavily postmarked stamps but the mark itself is partly missing. Postmark smudging on front, and card is aging beyond its years. Grade: 4

Code: 10110001
Price: $2.50
Disney World, Cinderella Castle
Two cards are available. One was mailed in 1973, and therefore would have been one of the earlier editions of anything from Disney World in Orlando. Heavily and not readably postmarked, with minor corner creasings (Grade: 3, $2). The other was mailed in 1976, with a 9-cent stamp, and is in better shape (Grade: 1, $3).

Code: 10110008
Price: $2.00
St. Petersburg, Fairview Manor
If we could charge based on sentiment alone, this card would be priceless. But we are more realistic than that. It was not postally used, and has a black rubber stamp mark on the reverse. The card dates from about 1952, and about all we can say here is that if you have been looking for one of these cards, here it is. Grade: 4

Code: 10110009
Price: $3.00
Miami Beach, Surfside, Bal Harbour
Aerial view of Bal Harbour pretending to be British yet in Miami Beach. Card was mailed in 1980 with a 21-cent airmail stamp, but only partial postmark. There’s some ink smudging on the front. Grade: 3

Price: $2.50

Code: 10110011
Price: $3.00
Miami, S.S. Florida of the P. & O. Line
Tichnor linen card 504, not mailed but with a travel agency rubber stamp on the reverse. The front is in very good shape. Googling the name of this ship leads to all sorts of exotic articles! Grade: 4

Code: 10110012
Price: $4.00
Tampa, Municipal Playgrounds
Dated 1922 on front bottom, this nice unused pre-linen card of tourists enjoying Florida’s sunshine and sports in midwinter (specifically, lawn bowls) was published by Florida News Co. A-88900 and is in normal condition for its age. Grade: 2

Code: 10110013
Price: $5.00
Key West, multiple views
Florida Impressions card KW-131, mailed in 1991 with a 36-cent airmail stamp that the partly legible postmark missed altogether. One error in the postmark that does show is the year “1991” which was inserted upside-down and therefore reads as “1661,” well before Jimmy Buffett got there. Grade: 3

Code: 10110014
Price: $2.00
Miami, Hialeah Park
Driveway to club house, Hialeah Park — unused card 5647 published by Thos. R. West in the 1930s. Horse racing enthusiasts would want to add this to their collection. Grade: 2

Code: 10110015
Price: $4.00
Homosassa Springs, Gator Lagoon
Mailed in 1970 with two 6-cent stamps and an indistinct postmark. It looks like a small piece of cellophane tape had been on the reverse and has long since disappeared. As well, the front has abrasions. Grade: 5

Code: 10110016
Price: $0.50
Greetings
Odd-sized card (3-1/2″ x 8″) mailed to Hong Kong in 2007 with complete Miami postmark and 75-cent stamp. The address is on an affixed sticker. The front is in great condition–we wonder how it survived the trip. Grade: 4

Code: 10110017

Price: $1.00
Crystal River, Home of the Manatee
This 4.5″ x 6.5″ card was mailed in 1997 with two stamps, a yellow USPS air mail sticker, USPS barcoding, a semi-distinct postmark, and some abrasions around the front edges. But how appealing (and how endangered) are those manatees. Grade: 3
