    CONDITION
    :
    antique postcard.....Never used...not written on nor stamped. It was in an album approx 100 years....and whoever put it in the album also put 1 small tape strip to secure .....I would just cut the tape flush with the side of the card, as trying to remove it will damage the card...It is minor, adjacent to  the outer rim, and nothing to fret over. It is "new" in that it was never posted nor written on, but of course 100+ years have given it wear, smudginess, age toning, and a tape strip....but this subject is highly desirable! (see photos)
    REMARKS
    : This was from estate of Mormons,  an ancestor was a missionary in NZ at turn of the century.....
    Will be shipped in stiff mailer.
    Thanks for shopping with me!
