138 Early 1900e Travel Postcards (16 booklets in all) - $50

This collection is either very, very old or just old. Most of the postcards are not postmarked and were most likely brought home as true souvenirs. The ones not postmarked can be roughly dated by the postage requirement on the card.

Cards before 1917 only cost a penny to mail, and 1 1/2 cents if you included a message. The postage went up to two cents in 1917.

Each folder has accordion style two-sided postcards. The breakdown is as follows:

—Views of the Panama Canal (missing back cover) 12 cards
