One of the most interesting things about this postcard might be the Standard Biscuit Company overprint (underprint) on back....But is this sort of a neat postcard or what?

Found it on ebay. I spend countless hours searching...sometimes it will pay off, usually I am just wasting my time away....:confused:

great find on ebay.

I know about those countless hours searching.

Sometimes the search does payoff with something nice.

3 neat things about that PC... Zeenut, Collins-McCarthy, and Standard Biscuit...

Make that 4 things - Al Davis, owner of the Raiders, appears to be the salesman and now we know how he got his start back in 1912....

So that's where Al Davis got his $$$ to buy the Raiders :D
Nice Pickup!

Nice pickup Leon,

You beat me and a couple others out on that one, but still got it at a good price in my opinion.

As you know it's very hard to find anything related to zeenuts.

Wow. Look at that plane. That is only 8 years after the Wright Brothers first flew at Kitty Hawk, and you can still see a clear design resemblance. Eight years and they are already throwing candy out of them for promotional purposes.

Guess that word traveled fast.

You may call it wasting your time away but when you find little gems like that it makes it all worth it. That is just COOL.

Please permit me to pass along, and bestow upon you, my personal Congressional "Get a Life" Medal of Honor.

It is supposed to be passed along every other week to another deserving individual, but I have selfishly held on to it.

Look at the time ... It's almost time to go to bed. :)

Great card!
