FS 1933 Chicago World's Fair

This is a very nice card - sent to Canada October 1933 and short paid. Canada affixed two J6 postage dues to the card - giving it a catalogue value of $25.00 on the basis of the PDs alone. Write me if interested.

Could we see the backside?

An interesting side note to that postcard. The colors of that "bus" look like Greyhound, so I checked and came up with this (apparently Greyhound was the authorized carrier for that event):

That is one beautiful Postcard.
If it is not gone by Sat Night,
and my lotto numbers come in....it's mine :)

Here's the other side. Cancelled Chicago October 2, 1933 and short paid to Canada. Interestingly - and quite strangely - the Post office affixed the postage dues right over the address. But it looks like ti may well have been what we used to call "General Delivery" - that is mail picked up at the Post Office.


For those interested in those buses, the card says ".........vistitors are transported by a fleet of sixty semi-trailer type open buses, which accommodate 15,000 to 20,000 passengers per hour."

One wonders why this bus model didn't become more popular and widespread.

That is a great bus...for San Diego. Wholly unsuited to Chicago outside of May and September, but neat to see.

Great looking PC, nice postmark, and good information. Unfortunately, too steep $$ for me.

stamperdude..........make an offer.

I would not want to ruffle your feathers with a very low offer of a $1. Maybe a trade is the route to go?
