You cheated Adam, that's not technically a postcard.

Nice Leon, only the 2nd overprint that I have ever seen. Super tough.

Every time Jeff shows that Bender, I die a little inside.

Great collection Jeff, see a lot of my former cards!

Sweet and just so you guys coming to Maine this summer, it's Ban-Gore for the pronunciation.. Accent on the Ban. Bangor is in Washington state. Up here we say, if you want to bang'er take her across the bridge to Brewer.
