- byPostcardCollector on4th February, 2012 inPostcard Shows

I just found this video on Youtube. I believe this is right before the doors opened at the Sunshine Postcard Club Show in Tampa, Florida -- January 2012. Was anyone from the forum able to attend? I see a couple of the same dealers that I met at the show in Orlando.

Borden's Condensed milk In Japanese and English
- byfincbob2451 on4th February, 2012 in• Advertising
-
Hello, I need a bit of help figuring this card out. It is an Irving Underhill PC advertising Borden's Condensed Milk.
The front shows a skyline view of New York and is written in Japanese. The reverse shows the advertising portion and is written in English. It has a 1907 U.S. postmark as well as a Japanese postmark with Japan printed at the bottom.
My question is was this card for use in Japan, the U.S., or both? Why printed in both languages?

2012 Orlando Kissimmee International Paper & Postcard Expo.
- byPostcardCollector on2nd February, 2012 inPostcard Shows

We had a really busy show in Orlando this year. In fact, we are going to be adding another table for Cherryland Auctions Booth for next year's show.
Our tables were so busy that some people had to move on (and come back later) because there was no way for them to get near the postcards! This shot is just was we were opening up.
Here is the other side of the room a little later that day.
Action shot!! The postcards were flying in Orlando, Florida!
Oh, and then my wife Carie and my Dad and I went to Disney's Animal...

Nov 19-20: York, PA International Postcard Exposition

Oops, I forgot to post any of the images from York, PA wayyy back in November.
The postcard fun started before we even got to the show with this great display we found at a rest area on the PA turnpike.
Busy busy busy! I don't think we had a free chair at our tables for the whole weekend!
I think this was just as the doors were opening on Saturday.
You like postcards? The York, PA show has LOTS of postcards! There are everything from quarter boxes to some of the finest postcards in the world on display and for sale.
I hope everyone...

1911 Ford Dealership Real Photo
- byPostcardCollector on21st January, 2012 in• Transportation

This real photo shows an early Ford Dealership with autos and buggies in the showroom. This photo shows an interesting time when both buggies and automobiles were sharing the roadways.
There is an "Elkhart Indiana County Fair" advertising on the back which helps to ID the location. The card was used in Indiana in 1911, but the town name is not shown on the cancel.

This card is identified in pencil on the back as "Postcard Inventor" on 1897 German Mourning Card with German government postal card back with a printed Signature.
I can't really read the signature except for the "Dr." part.
