I haven't hit any sales for the past couple of weeks but I did make a big score on Craigslist. This is only the second time I have ever bought anything off of Craigslist but it was too good a deal to pass up. I bought around 900 vintage postcards for $25. I don't know why I love these old cards but I do. They are just so great to display during the Holidays. I think I have every Holiday covered now!
So here we go by Holiday, first up Halloween. I did not have any vintage Halloween postcards until I bought this lot. I think there were 10 in the lot.
Only 2 for the Fourth of July
St. Patrick's Day
Thanksgiving
There were a total of 160 Easter Cards
Some of the cutest Valentines I have ever seen (several large googly eyes and mechanical cards)
New Year's
Christmas
Birthday
Lots of other miscellaneous cards but I think this one is my favorite!
All of the cards date to the early 1900's through about 1930. They all belong to one family, someone had kept and loved them all these years. I was thrilled to get this collection!
SCORE...SCORE..SCORE!!! Oh My Goodness!!! A deal of a lifetime! LOVE old postcards!!
