Rose postcards with Greenfield's back
 
2 Attachment(s)
I picked up a Greenfield backed Rose postcard recently and bought it because I had never seen one before(actually didn't know they existed). I've read Mr. Spillman's excellent article in Old Cardboard on the Rose postcards and was wondering if anyone had any new information on these Greenfields.
Or just post a scan of one, or any Rose for that matter.

Thanks Tony, I appreciate the link. That is one that Jerry S. mentioned in his article.

Just an FYI post here about Greenfield's candy and their postcard issues...

They also produced a set of postcards of New York Scenes that have been cataloged as E263 (image found on non-sports side)...

Thus, a case could be made that the Rose cards could be E263-2 or E-Uncataloged. I'm not making that claim but there is precedent for them to be an E-card if the "New York Scenes" set was eventually added (not sure when they were first cataloged as E263). There are several non-sport postcard sets included in the ACC in the gum/candy section (E230, E257, E263, E265, etc.)
