~ Hello, I Google a lot & found you: TODAYSGOLD TOP TEN
This is great info on collecting postcards. You should write a guide book! I didn't even know about the $60,000 postcard & I collect vintage postcards. I hope you will write more about collecting postcards of any kind. Thanks for the advise & sharing some of your rare Christmas Santa Claus postcard collection.

~ Hi Jim, I'm so glad you found me... LOL! Thanks for saying I should write a book. Right now I am working on a Halloween OOAK Black Cat Fantasy Art Book. You may find this book interesting because included in my art book will be OOAK Original One Of Kind postcards. Right now you might like to check out a couple of my favorite artist's OOAK art postcards. Here are their Names & direct Blog links: BECKY FEDERICO & CHRISTOPHER KLINGLER
