NOT
A POSTCARD
(though, even odd sized, it COULD have been used as one) but
WITH REAL PHOTO
Original ca. 1920s REAL PHOTO Christmas Card with printed sentiment & signed by "The Reeds" - Mary Ella & James Reed - showing their home in Waynesboro, North Carolina. (They moved to Asheville in 1931 and I currently have for sale on ebay 2 actual 1931 real photo postcards of their "new" home in Asheville - subject to prior sale).
I've "tweaked" the 1st & 2nd scans a tad to show more details
. The card you receive will look like the 3rd scan.
Card measures just under 4 inches wide by just under 5 inches deep. Back in those days with fewer postal restrictions, this COULD have been used as a postcard even though there are absolutely no markings on the verso of this Christmas card.
Standard size postcards
NOT A POSTCARD
(though, even with its odd size, it COULD have been used as one, I think) but WITH REAL PHOTO; some minor soiling else VERY GOOD
. . . . . . . . . .
Remember that the
Abraham Lincoln Penny
is not attached to the item. It is put on the scanner bed merely to protect the uniqueness or near uniqueness
of an image
so that the high bidder gets an item that has not been copied via someone's computer. The penny DOES NOT hide any faults or any damage!

(the fine print ... [sigh] ... but please read :-)
WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
NO EXCEPTIONS.
FREE SHIPPING via stiff plastic postcard holder and/or cardboard + plastic sleeve protected 1st class mail, STANDARD RATE.
Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page" - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - it is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Parcel." Buyer MAY opt in (at a small-ish extra charge) for upgraded 1st class mail package rate (with TRACKING #)  at checkout if they choose to do so.
I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
business
days (Mon-Fri)
max
- often less than that.
Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
NOT
FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
