San Francisco: promotional office, 1940. Postcard. Very good exemplars enclosed in a small plastic presentation folder provided with twenty clear pockets of 6x4 inches, each to contain two back-to-back cards, of which three contain one card only and another none at all, the rest filled to capacity. There are 13 b&w cards, the rest (22) are in color or colorized. Good ones! especially the fancy color items. Spot-checking suggests that this was an active collection, not a group purchased en masse, as the terminal card is marked discreetly "$1.00" in pencil. Most unused, though a couple have greetings/portage/postmarks to verso.
