After buying auction lots and pulling out what I need, I've accumulated a stack of US stamped envelopes (entires) and postal cards, as seen in the image. There's a lot of duplication. Therefore, rather than sell, I'd like to give away as many as I can here, so I'm offering packets of 12-15 unique items selected from the stack. All date from the 1920 to 1985 period. None are postally used. There are no rarities here but perhaps you'll fill some gaps. The terms of this free giveaway are:
1. You must have 50 quality posts in the forum and have email communication turned on. I can't obtain your postal address unless we can exchange email.
2. You must provide a complete postal address in the United States or its possessions. All items sent by USPS first class mail, no insurance, no tracking. If you don't receive them, sorry, there is no recourse.
3. You can specify stamped envelopes only, postal cards only, or a mix. The supply of stamped envelopes will be exhausted after I receive 5 or 6 requests. You'll receive about 12-15 unique items or up to about 1 1/2 ounces, to keep my postage costs reasonable. Some envelopes may be stuck closed. If I receive many requests, later recipients may get items with some toning or foxing. Items come from an accumulation of a Massachusetts school administrator who appeared to assemble items in the 1950-1985 period and didn't protect some against humidity. Many items are usable for mailing today with added postage.
Thanks for your interest.
