Description

Here we have: an authentic antique postcard from 1904 featuring the: US Government Building from the Hold Card to Light 1904 series Official Souvenir World's Fair, St. Louis, 1904 produced by the Samuel Cupples Company in unposted and unused condition We have 14 postcards from this series, as well as many other World's Fair collectibles and vintage and antique postcards in our store, to which we add new inventory daily, and we're always happy to combine shipping at actual cost. If the eBay shipping calculator doesn't correctly combine your items and/or overcharges you for shipping at check-out, never fear: we will issue a refund for the overcharge on the day of shipment. Condition : Our photographs reveal the condition best and are the most important part of the description--please zoom in on them and examine them carefully. Very clean and fresh piece in stellar condition for age. Unposted, unused, with no writing (other than a collector's penciled-in price note on the back) and no other signs of use other than the indent on the lower left corner front -- see photo highlighting it. Absolutely nothing sticky or otherwise gross, and no funky odors. Overall typical or better expected aging of materials. Rest assured that we will do all we can to ensure that your piece of ephemera arrives exactly as presented in our photos. We invest time and appropriate materials into shipping all of our ephemera, and we provide tracking on all shipments. All pieces are sent in rigid mailers or envelopes that are sandwiched between cardboard before being sent as first-class parcels in non-bendable mailers, which ship at rates much higher than first-class letters. We never toss our ephemera into thin stationery envelopes with forever stamps stuck to them expecting the USPS to deliver them to you with great care. And we ship everything fully insured. Shipping : We do our best to provide the lowest shipping rates by giving you as many choices as allowed and as make sense for the size, weight and value of your package. You can find all of the rates available to you by scrolling to the Shipping section below (if on the app/a cell phone) or by clicking on the "SEE DETAILS" link to the right of the "Shipping" amount noted next to the photos (if on the browser/computer version.) These are the only ways to view all of your shipping options (including their costs and * estimated* arrival dates.) We consider funky odors (cigarette smoke, mildew, etc) to be an important part of a condition report. Corndogcache is a 100% non-smoking environment, and we'll let you know if any of our vintage items smell like it ( or anything else ) from activities they may have been involved in before they came to us. The Fine Print: We expect payment within 1 day of purchase. If you're waiting for other auctions to end so that you can combine shipping, shoot us a message to let us know. If you're unable to pay within terms, please reach out with your Plan B. Things happen. Especially these days. So just shoot us a message. We don't accept buyer-remorse returns but we will grant you the use of our description and photos so that you can re-ebay the item yourself. Although we don't accept buyer-remorse returns, reach out if you're unhappy with your purchase! If we messed up -- everybody does -- give us a chance to fix it. We promise it was unintentional, and we'll do what we can to make it right.
