  • Philadelphia, Along the Wissahickon Drive, Fairmount Park

    This is exctly the kind of card that would–if it was in Philadelphia and you were a collector there–command a higher price.  We don’t know about you, but we’re not there, so we can offer it reasonably.  Mailed in 1906, with stamp and two postmarks, so it’s more than a hundred years old and costs about the same as your Sunday paper.  Grade: 3

  • A View of the Lake, Eagles Mere (two cards)

    On 20th September, 1906, someone mailed these two cards in sequence to the same person in Bozeman, Montana.  Each card has its stamp, and postmarks from Eagles Mere and Bozeman — three days apart. The two cards provide a contiguous view of the lake, and the message, and we’re not going to break up the set.  Both cards together:  Grades: 2
