    [Real Photo Postcard]
    original ca. early 1940s (judging from vehicle shown in the photo) real photo postcard, captioned in the negative as follows:
    Grain Elevators, Milwaukee Depot, Baker Montana B-853
    Photo made by Cecil C. Nixon, Butte Montana
    Depot presumably belonged to the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific (CMStP&P), better known as the Milwaukee Road, the 3rd railroad to build all the way to the Pacific Ocean.
    Standard size postcard.
    As of 10 July 2021, I couldn't find any other card exactly like this for sale on ebay - in either current or completed listings
    Postally unused (but I only have one of these); top & bottom edges VERY LIGHTLY rubbed else FINE
    . . . . . .
    Remember that the
    Abraham Lincoln Penny
    is not attached to the item. It is put on the scanner bed merely to protect the uniqueness or near uniqueness of an image so that the high bidder gets an item that has not been copied via someone's computer. The penny DOES NOT hide any faults or any damage!

    WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
    NO EXCEPTIONS.
    FREE SHIPPING via stiff plastic postcard holder and/or cardboard + plastic sleeve protected 1st class mail, STANDARD RATE.
    Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page" - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - it is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Parcel." Buyer MAY opt in (at a small-ish extra charge) for upgraded 1st class mail package rate (with TRACKING #)  at checkout if they choose to do so.
    I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
    business
    days (Mon-Fri)
    max
    - often less than that.
    PAYPAL IS THE MUCH PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT.
    Thanks!
    Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
    NOT
    FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
    PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
    In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
