Sadly, not uncommon - but I've yet to see a used copy in my travels. (Of course, I don't collect Nepal, but old Nepalese material does show up regularly in older Indian States accumulations.)
Well, yes, a used copy, I grant you, Rodney. But I'm still looking for a proper, commercial use. I'm sure they exist, but compared with, say, the contemporary Jammu & Kashmir postcards
commercially used Nepalese postcards seem to be pretty thin on the ground.
I finally got a chance to look mine up in the Higgins and Gage. What a surprise there are so many varieties of this one postcard depending on the design of the horse, the value tablet and the writing on the card. Turns out mine is a more common but not most common variety. There are some really scarce combinations that today would probably fetch $200.
