U.S. Postal Card Accumulation (1873-1920), a few thousand cards sorted by issue, between #UX1//UX35 plus some Paid Reply issues. While predominately used, there are some unused plus over a hundred early mint cards, a small group of cards to foreign destinations with a.a.'s as well as international cards such as #UX6 (6), UX13 (to France), UX16, etc. Lastly there is an attractive group of 90 cards with illustrated advertising (many in color or multi-colored) with by far the best being five unused #UX10 with the famous Grover Cleveland-Benjamin Harrison Top Hat design for the Standard and G.O.P. styles. Some faulty as to be expected, but the vast majority are F-VF. Attractive lot which apparently has not been checked for cancels or plate varieties.
Estimate 2,000 - 3,000
