YANCEYVILLE NC Postcard AIRSHIP Line Drop ALTAMAHAW Elon College NORTH CAROLINA:
$7.95

This vintage postcard utilizes the lowest form of humor-- the pun-- and a man holding an umbrella rapidly descending while a futuristic airship from 2110 A.D. appears (out of Saturn?) to rescue the fallen, and the inscription reads, \"Drop Me A Line\".
This postcard was postmarked several times, first in March of 1908 in Yanceyville, Caswell County, North Carolina, and then the postcard was sent to a community in Alamance County called Altamahaw; then it looks as if the postcard continued and found its way to the nearby campus of Elon College in Elon, North Carolina.

After the years the postcard may show some typical wear, such as the torn postage stamp.

PLEASE review the scans carefully and then purchase confidently.

For a domestic mailing, I\'ll send your postcard free of charge with standard first class shipping within the United States. In the effort to keep our costs down, I tend to trust our postal service and it works out great \"99.9%\" of the time. Moreover, in my experience \"postcard enthusiasts\" are a great community of people who are collaborative and don\'t take advantage of each other; therefore, I typically do not feel the need to drive up your costs so that I can later prove successful delivery-- I trust you. However, if you want to purchasecertified mail services (includes tracking), then please send me a message so that we can make arrangements.

I collect, trade, and sell postcards because it\'s interesting and fun. If I\'m selling a postcard that you\'d like to own but you perceive that my asking price is just too high for your taste or budget, then please offer me \"a deal I can\'t refuse.\" I like it best when everybody gets what they want.

Thanks for considering this keepsake.General Guideline of Postcard Eras
