    Great find on that old atlas John. What’s the term for those old divided back cards that have peoples faces making up the letters? I’ve seen them as greetings from towns and also names. Thanks

      The USPS has a list about.usps.com/who/profile/history/postmaster-finder/post-offices-by-disc-date.htm But the best set of books on the subject are the ones from Richard Helbock. They can be found used on Amazon & ebay. www.amazon.com/United-States-Post-Offices-Vol/dp/0971260869/ref=sr_1_6?crid=TWRMR13OC1GM&keywords=richard+helbock&qid=1674414110&sprefix=richard+helbock%2Caps%2C64&sr=8-6 there are several books in the series covering different regions in the US.

    Hi, I've been binge-watching your videos because I'm trying to learn more about selling postcards. I have 3 postcards that are what I finally figured out are aluminum. These are still in a vellum covering. Do you know anything about these? I watched all your beginner guide videos, and now I'm working on your other videos. And I've watched other videos on types of postcards, but no one mentions aluminum. Any help would be great.

    • @PopeyesPostcards
      @PopeyesPostcards  Před rokem +1

      I've run into aluminum postcards before. They fall under the novelty category like squeaker cards, wood cards, etc. They aren’t very common and depending on the scene printed on the front, such as a desirable location/town, they can be valuable, $100+. Thank you for watching.

    I am going to my first postcard show this week. Do most vendors take cards or cash based upon your experience?

    • @PopeyesPostcards
      @PopeyesPostcards  Před rokem +1

      Mostly cash, some will take personal checks, only a few will be set up to do credit cards. Some dealers with have posted discounts if you buy X amount. If you don't see anything posted and you have $100 worth of cards in your hands, ask if they can do any discount. Good luck, have fun. Just remember you won't be able to see every single card so don't get overwhelmed.
