The "white bordered" one, correct, not Leon's card? It was the former I referenced with my comment.

Based on the back, that card is almost certainly an AZO card, which is why I said it was a real photo.

Pretty sure they are BOTH printed-photo postcards and not real-photos ones, unless the sepia one was made from a grainy photo of the original cabinet or the blue printed postcard.

I also believe the back on that 1918 Weiser Wonder postcard is an AZO back...whoever made those took a photo of a photo.

Very possible, maybe it was a one-off by somebody just using a photo of a photo. That would also help explain the much later date.

Wish we could see a close-up of the sepia one to be sure.

Can you tell that it is an AZO postcard without being able to see the stamp box?

Yes...I'm 100% certain it's AZO

Here is a random AZO from my collection.

What about the fact that the sepia postcard, although postmarked 1918, has an undivided back? Does that say anything about its vintage? Or were those still being made long after the advent of the divided backs in 1907?
