    Description

    Antique Divided Back Postcard 1911 Postally Unused PC of The KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS HOME In SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. This is a HIGH QUALITY card, beautifully EMBOSSED. It’s difficult to see, but in the lower left corner is the name of the card maker out of New York. There is an INTERESTING MESSAGE in pencil on the back written by a child indicating that her mother gave this postcard to her father (who was probably a member of the fraternal organization. The Knights of Pythias is a fraternal organization and secret society founded in Washington D.C. in 1864. They are the first fraternal organization to receive a charter as an act of Congress. The Phythians are deeply involved in social and charitable activities in their communities. Standard size card 5.5” x 3.5”. In VERY GOOD CONDITION according to postcard rating system without bends, creases, or pinholes. There is very mild edge wear and mild discoloration along the top right half of the card that is barely noticeable. These are not detrimental to the overall great appearance of the card in my opinion, however. But, please see photo and you be the judge. IMPORTANT POSTCARD SHIPPING INFORMATION: For single postcard purchases, you can choose .75 cents for postage, but there will be no tracking number included. This is called a non-machined letter and is handled in such a way so to not bend it. Please understand that if you choose this option you are making an informed decision to take the risk that should your package get lost, there will be no way to track it and I the seller am not to blame (in terms of giving me negative feedback). I will, however, refund you the full price of the postcard and shipping in the rare event that this happens. The other option is to pay .15 for a First Class Package with tracking. These are the only two options the post office gave me. On multiple postcard orders, please wait until you hear from me before paying as there are several factors that go into calculated shipping on volume pricing. Please do send me your zip code as soon as you can after making a multiple postcard order, however. I would greatly appreciate that as that will be a factor in calculating shipping costs. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Please ask questions before bidding and let the photos guide you as well. US SALES ONLY PLEASE!! I was a long time seller on eBay some 15 years ago with 100% positive feedback. Bid with confidence! Thanks for looking!!
