I enjoy reading your older News letters. I came here looking for the history of Artvue Post Card Co. NY.
I have just discovered a 200 piece post card collection from 1906 to about 1930 in an old east bay building I own. I would like to know how to preserve and appraise them. Several are from San Francisco and Oakland. (Example: card from the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco) I am not a collector however, I do want to preserve them as they are addressed to a founder of a small east bay community. John G
Loved seeing the old St. Francis and hearing the foghorn. I grew up with the Passamaquoddy lights and horns and they kept me awake when i was little.
Your site is great I wish I could down load some post cards my mom has. Alcatraz Island is really old, Market Street , Chinatown , cable cars on Fillmore St., Fisherman’s Wharf , St Francis Hotel , Cliff House and Sutro Heights San Francisco all in black and white back in the early 1900's. The Cliff House she has is before the rest of the building was done -- before the top was put on so I think this card is really old. Thank you.
Greetings from New York. Another great newsletter and wonderful Internet site. Best regards, Susan Lane
Maravilhoso muito lindo não tem como comentar.
I am interested in Latvian postcards before 1945. My collection http://lubago.sitecity.ru/index.phtml
What a beautiful site! I am trying to preserve some Hot Springs here in Southern California and I know there was post cards and ephemera from the place by I am as yet to find anything after 6 years of searching! (I already belong to all the historical societies and they don't have much either!) The only thing that can save this place's future, is it's past! I am asking for help. Anyone knowing where I can find or a trail that might lead me to where I can find PC or Ephemera on: The San Juan Hot Springs I would greatly appreciate it!
I am Ashwani from India I want used post cards on ships and locomotives from 1900 to 1950. In exchange I can send British period post cards of India.
Excellent site. Thoroughly enjoyed going through the exhibits and seeing some truly spectacular cards.
I was just introduced to this site and look forward to exploring! I've been collecting postcards for years! I collect them for the story and will sit for hours in antique shops, reading through postcards! I have anything from soldiers mail to a man writing home to a co-worker ... while on vacation he fell in love with the place and will not be returning .. . love it!!!! TTFN Jwls
I enlisted in the Army, 15th Infantry Ft Lewis WA, in Mar 39. In 1940 the 3d Division made the Treasure Island Company a composite of the 4th, 7th, 15th & 30 Infantry Reg'ts [at the Golden Gate International Exposition]. Tommy Derx and I made it thru the tough elimination process on Crissy Field. We lived in barracks next to the Seaplane ride (Hunter Liggett). We performed military ceremonies and sometimes, off duty we were paid to walk around inside the big caricatures. When the California building caught on fire we were directed to run to the building and run in and out removing valuables before the Fire Dept got there. They mailed a parchment signed by Gov Cuthbert Olson, for valiant and heroic action, to each one of us, at our home stations, after the fair closed. Billy Rose's aquacade sent an open invite to our compound for any of us to their farewell party. Johnny Weismueller signed an autograph on the back of my CA drivers lic. I never forgot how tall and beautiful those swimmer girls were when we got to sit with them.
I have some Fishermans Wharf cards 1971 Pierre Marc Productions not
rare but I'd like to see if anyone is interested in them. I'm in SF
just for Dr appts but maybe I can get to a show sometime. I would like
to hear if anyone is interested. They are unused and in very good
condition.

I sure miss those foghorns, in fact
all of them. I lived on my boat at Pier 39 for 8 years and when I
heard those on your website they sure brought back some great
memories. Now living in the Virgin Islands where there is no fog.
Making a short recording of Bay sounds and The Bridge Horns make you
believe you're standing at Fort Point. Great Job. ___________________________________________________________
