Mike Roberts (1905-1989) is famously known as America's Postcard King due to his impressive career in color photography and printing that spanned more than 50 years. He began working in a photo studio in San Bernardino when he was young and had the opportunity to photograph figures like Albert Einstein and Amelia Earhart. He also photographed scenes from the 1939 World's Fair in San Francisco to be published in The Saturday Evening Post, Fortune, and Life and was later commissioned to take color photographs for a Standard Oil marketing campaign after WWII with the idea that color photos would be given to people who were filling their cars up with gas so they would want to take trips to the places in the photos, using more gas. Mike's son, Bob Roberts, said that his father had a bunch of photographs left over from the commission and decided to turn them into postcards.

Please review the photos carefully for condition and detail. Normal wear associated with an old postcard might have creases, corner bumps, ink on the front etc.
