Newbie "Marty" Says HI To All!

Hey Everyone,

Okay, I finally got around to scanning 2 of these Postal Cards I have. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on these..

Unfortunetly, these are just the stamped corners of the two that I have. You can see that theey are dated "84" and "83" as in 1883 & 1884. I will include the rest of the cards when I can scan these again ( I did not realize that scans had to be under 100k, sorry)

the fourth, UX7a with 23 teeth below "one cent" inscribed "NOTHING BUT THE ADDRESS"...$65.00

Tom,

I posted the new pictures I re-scanned, but then they got moved over to "My Postal Cards". If you have a moment, can you take a look at them?? I was trying to see what it is you were talking about, but I am not sure I see it. I was looking for the USPOD in the watermark, but I can't find either. As for 23 teeth, I count 21, not 23. And, since Nothing But The Adress is not printed on both sides, I am guessing that I have plain UX7?? I still love the history behind them!..lol. Anyway, thanks for your input.....Marty
