Approximate measurements:5.5\" x 3.25\"We have lots of fabulous postcards and original art pieces in our store, to which we add new inventory daily, and we\'re always happy to combine shippingat actual cost.When purchasing multiple items, please choose \"ADD TO CART\" instead of \"buy now\" and check-out from the cart when you are completely done shopping with us. If the checkout fails to properly combine your orders or, as it is very apt to do, overcharges you for combined shipping, we will issue a refund for the difference between what you paid for shipping, and the actual cost of the shipping, on the day that we ship your package. (We don\'t find out the actual cost of combined shipping until we purchase the shipping label.)
Condition:Our photographs reveal the condition best and are the most important part of the description--please zoom in on them and examine them carefully. Very clean and fresh card with nothing sticky or otherwise gross, and no funky odors. Postally unused. The front of the card is in overall minty condition, with no evident condition issues.Collectors\' notes and historical pricing details may be penciled-in on back. Lies nice and flat. Note that this is an original handprinted piece of art, with variations that are expected, typical and almost always desirable. This card will not be exactly the same as the \"same\" card from the series, and that is considered a good thing.
Rest assured that we will do all we can to ensure that your piece of ephemera arrives exactly as presented in our photos.We invest time and appropriate materials into shipping all of our ephemera, and we provide tracking on all shipments. All pieces are sent in rigid mailers or envelopes that are sandwiched between cardboard before being sent as first-classparcelsin non-bendable mailers, which ship at rates much higher than first-classletters. We never toss our ephemera into thin stationery envelopes with forever stamps stuck to them expecting the USPS to deliver them to you with great care. And we ship everything fully insured.
We consider funky odors (cigarette smoke, mildew, etc) to be an important part of a condition report. Corndogcache is a 100% non-smoking environment, and we\'ll let you know if any of our vintage items smell like it (or anything else) from activities they may have been involved in before they came to us.
