The post card looks like a fairly generic one from the 30's-40's to me...but others, on the board, know more about pc's than I... For the coupon it is a fairly common one, although very cool. Some board members, and I, collect the coupons. These, the boxes of cigars/cigarettes and candy wrappers associated with cards, are what I had in mind when I say "related topics" in being the focus of this forum. Of course there are numerous other "related" card things to talk about also but I always have liked the coupons and cigarette packs. Most are fairly inexpensive relative to cards too which is a big plus for folks on a budget... (hint- if you have one not listed I would love to trade for/buy it).....A short list of the some of the related items I have in my collection are:
