ALL POSTCARDS ARE 100% GUARANTEED TO BE AUTHENTIC AND OF THE TIME PERIOD INICATED.  Private Mailing Card from the 1898-1901 era which is in excellent condition and so rare to locate this decent.   Has soft corners from album mountingbut no rips or creases owtherwise. Unused.   Front reads:  Paupack Fall, Silk Mill and Glass Cutting Factory, Hawley, Pa. This is not a cut off card - the scan made the reverse appear cut. There are many different views in postcards of this factory but the early 1898 PMC cards are few and far between.    I have other Pa. cards up so check out my items for combined shipping at no extra cost.  Notice to Postcard Buyers:  Your purchase will be secure shipped in a protective sleeve and deluxe holder and mailed in an oversized envelope or bubble pack mailer for safety.   My package cost between the holder and mailer runs close to 2.00 so the shipping cost of 2.00 is a bargain folks.   I WILL NOT send in regular envelopes - maybe you trust the Post Office handling, but I don't. Usually the postcards offered are MUCH better looking than the scans indicate.    If you have questions or need more photos - just ask as my personal response time is usually within 24 hours or  less.  Payment is expected within 5 days unless other arrangements have been made.  If you are from the area: Alternative payment or pick-up options are available.   Be kind to the Earth - Plant a tree this year!
