Thanks Derek.

I can recollect that, 1963.
But I forget what they had before the zip code.

Of course, the erased number needn't be a zip-code,
but it would be one reason to erase it if it were.

I wrote of my concerns to the seller, who looks reputable.
He replied:

They are definitely from the period, and came with many other items I purchased from the 1920's.
People sometimes applied stamps for their businesses to a card when they purchased them, years
after they were made. That is all I know about these postcards.


The suggestion is that the erased Sports Cards Collector's stamp may have been stamped long after the cards were printed.

Brooklyn Dodgers collector that I am, right now I'm leaning towards keeping them.
