Cow Creek Canon
Unused postally but heavily written, this very old Portland Post Card Co. card 246, made in Germany, is so heavy that the front lamination is buckling. That’s why the scan looks this way. Tough old cookie. Grade: 4

Greetings from Portland
Allow us a little side comment here: we love this kind of card. The design 100% represents the typical card American families in the 40s and 50s were delighted to find in their mailbox, and they would chat with the postman about how much fun the neighbours were having. OK now, back to reality. This Curt Teich linen card 2B-H1157 (and 702) was mailed in 1947 with stamp and full postmark. All those places embedded in the letters are identified in the reverse caption. Grade: 2

Code: 10138020

Columbia River Gorge, Crown Point, on United Airlines menu

Code: 10138030
Price: $6.00

Heceta Head, Oregon Coast Highway
Unused C.T. Art-Colortone Wesley Andrews linen card 9A-H2525 (and 1009) of this by-now familiar scene, but the card does not reference the famous lighthouse at all. It’s there–you just need to look for it. Grade: 1

Code: 10138038
Price: $4.00

Heceta Head (Union Oil No. 65)
Over the years, Union Oil Company of California issued a series of cards (“See the Old West this year with 76 Gasoline”) (the slogan varies over time) depicting western U.S.A. landmarks. This card, dated 1941, is one of those. We have two of these. One was mailed in 1943 with 1-cent stamp and Cottage Grove, Oregon, postmark–and a message that so totally resonates with us as we have read (or tried to read) thousands of similar messages from eras past (Grade: 1, $7). The other is unused and with a minor smudge on the reverse (Grade: 2, $5).

Code: 10138040
Price: $7.00
