In my experience the best deals on collectible postcards are found at auctions, specifically art auctions. One day I stopped by an art auction in Dallas, Texas to shop for some paintings but instead I discovered a large amount of antique collectible postcards. I purchased a giant collection of postcards which consisted of about four thousand cards.
In this large collection almost 20 percent of the post cards were pre-linen. This means that all of these pre-linen cards were created before 1930. Approximately 40 percent of the collection was linen cards. Linen postcards were created between 1930 and 1945.
Finally, the remaining 40 percent of the postcards were chrome collectibles. These cards were created sometime between 1950 and 1960. I also discovered some collectible postcards from a special British museum series.
It took a long time to sort all of the postcards but I finally did it. My favorite postcards were the ones that were designed for holidays. Christmas cards and Valentine's Day cards were especially my favorite as they all featured very nice artwork and messages. I was extremely lucky that my purchase of collectible postcards were so wide-range.
It is very pleasing to find collectible postcards at art auctions. Most of the time, the auctioneer does not really know the true value of the cards. Their lack of knowledge can really work in your favor. I have purchased some amazing collections at very low prices. It is important to be able to distinguish between the different types of postcards like pre-linen, linen and chrome.
