The real photo postcards posted in this thread have been amazing, but I kind of think they don't really fit within the spirit of a "1 of 1 card" as I'm viewing it. I do consider them cards, or close enough to cards. And I'm glad they've been posted. But so many real photo postcards are unique examples. A real photo postcard that's a 1 of 1 isn't particularly rare, even though that particular example might be, if that makes sense. But a 1 of 1 for a card that is part of an issue where numerous examples were likely produced and distributed is quite rare, in my opinion. I'm definitely not trying to take anything away from the RPPCs that have been posted here because there are several of them I would love to own. I hope some of that makes sense because it doesn't feel like I'm doing a good job of explaining myself. Also, like Leon, I prefer to say "only known example" instead of 1 of 1.
Anyway, here are a few of mine:
1902 Seymour Church Rube Waddell premium
1927-28 Mallorquina Martin Dihigo (1st card)
1945 Mexican Ray Dandridge (1st card)
1950s Dominican Juan Marichal (1st card)
