Got this set of postcards from ebay not too long ago. The more I look at them the better I like them. This is a three part postcard kinda like the Burma Shave signs - but the reverse are interesting because they are sent on three consecutive days July 25, 26, 27, 1908 (which makes them 103 years old this week) - and two of the cards are sent through RPO's. Glad this one did not get away from me! Look closely and be sure to read the punny captions. Remember, these are three different cards mailed on three different days that have "come together". Yes when you put the cards end to end they make one big fish! I also collect sport fishing topicals so this has been a fun find for me.

Those are great postcards. I have an interest in Burma Shave signs because of my Route 66 interests. I have even held a real Burma Shave sign. Heck, I have a collection of elongated coins (pressed pennies) with Burma Shave sayings on them.
