O.,  RPPC - REAL PHOTO POST CARD of the VERY FULL AND VERY BUST MAIN STREET, Carney & Gowld Fabric Shop with a Buttrick Patterns poster in front window, HART HARDWARE, old car - horse drawn farm wagon, Church, post office, deliver triucxk with wooden box built on back, may have been mail truck, andf more.  THESE ARE THE BUILDINGS - NORTH OF THE CURRENT HIGHWAY - ONE IS THE ONE THAT THE INFAMOUS POLE BARN THEATER WAS IN - UGH! . Very Good to Excellent UNused shape. Typical corner rounding and edge wear, no major faults.

While we show all cards on the face of the listing page "used", check the actual descriptions. eBay forcing us to call a 100 year old card new - when it is actually NOS - which means New Old Stock - is silly, many are unmailed, but are unused.

Card shape descriptions are done to the Post Card trade standards: Mint is hard to find; Near Mint has very little if any wear; Excellent allows some wear and minor soiling; Very Good is better than average; Good is basically average; Fair is to allow more wear than normal; Poor is obvious. We try to call out any tears, minor wrinkles are on most any card. Creased means has been folded or badly bent. Cut down cards are hardly ever sold by us, if so will be told as such. Repros - destroyed, unless historic value - life is just to short for cheats! Most old cards are about 3 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 inches.

FAST SHIPPING! FAST SHIPPING! 1000s of cards yet to be listed, and we are all over the Midwest and beyond most every week looking for more!

NOTE: Colored border is to highlight cards & is NOT part of card!
