I am going to go reward myself now and watch more of your videos 😊 😊 😊

[@RustyTheReseller]

Haha. Rewards can be so sweet!

[@merrydavis3227]

@@RustyTheReseller Cheap thrills, but I always learn 'something'!!

[@dennisferguson9129]

Rusty - I watched several of your videos ( postcard guide and others) and have learned quite a lot. I'm a 68 year stamp collector and 49 year dealer but never got into postcards. Trying to learn enough to deal in them as well. The stamps on the cards are all very common both 1c and 2c. Stamp dealers sell them for a dime. The exception is the 2c red Lincoln stamp which is worth a buck and a half. It is a commemorative stamp. Commems are sold at post office for a few months as opposed to the others on your cards that are definitive (regular issue) stamps and are sold for years. Railroad cancels can be good. The name of the RR they traveled on is in the dial portion of the postmark. The smaller the railroad the better and can be worth a few bucks or more. Some of them show RMS (railway mail service) in the killer (wavy line portion) of the stamp. They add no particular value

[@RustyTheReseller]

Thank you for all that great info!

[@SovereignChi]

These videos by Rusty the Reseller and Matt/Brandon on WHAT SOLD are so interesting!

[@DeniseLaFranceCDNpainter]

*_"Family affair here. Just havin' a nice libation on an afternoon."_* ❤ SO enjoying your narrative, Rusty, as you show us your fun postcards. Feels like we're sitting right there with you, Cousin.

[@willardtaylor6249]

Thank you for the very informative video about old post cards. Without knowing anything about their values, I have always enjoyed looking at them. I do have quite a few that have been passed down through my family, along with others that I have picked up over the years. One of my favorite cards that was sent to my grandfather in 1911 shows the post office in Winchester, Virginia, and has the following written message: “Autos go by every minute it seems, but give me a good horse “. Another card I have is a photograph of a store in Kelton, Utah with a covered wagon parked next to it. Today, Kelton, Utah is a ghost town with nothing remaining but a few stones in a cemetery. Another card that I have shows a woman in the back seat of an open automobile from about 1910 ( no date on the unused card) hugging the driver with the caption reading, “They say you can’t flirt in an auto “. Also, as an experienced philatelist, I should mention that most of the Washington Shield stamps shown at 23:35 are quite common, with the exception of several rare varieties. Since the postage rate at the time for sending a post card was 1 cent, the useage of a 2 cent stamp on a card would not be common as it would be over payment. These stamps were commonly used on envelopes as 2 cents was the letter rate then. The 1909 Lincoln stamp shown is a little more valuable, but it is not a rare stamp. It might add about $1 or $2 , but not $50 or $100. But, as you have said, one should always look for stamps on the back of old cards as some used stamps are very valuable.

[@gerijohnson5379]

I think the S and 10 store is actually a 5 and 10 store. Others called it a 5 and dime store back in the day. I'm just getting into selling post cards so this video is definitely a big help for me! I have 24 cards and found one with a red Washington Shield Stamp! I have a son that lives in North Carolina!

[@maureenfitzgerald1895]

We always called it the five and dime. Nancy Griffith had a song called, “Love at the five and dime.”

[@thetreasurehuntingboomer]

I don't find Postcards in the wild in Australia ..some antique shops on occasion.. I love ones with letters on back. Found one from early 1900s with a little girl and a letter ended up searching for her family ..found her grandson who contacted his dad I sent it to him he'd never seen his mum so young

[@mothbythesea]

I'm also in australia and recently came across over 1200 postcards for $15 in a random country op shop. Such a treasure trove. I'm now working with a friend of mine who is very in to genealogy and together we are piecing together ancestral pasts by my scanning and uploading of postcards and her genealogical research and connecting ancestors back to their modern bloodlines. It's incredible. My favourite pastime.

[@etchingsofthepast6781]

That is two fire departments competing. If you look closely there is a barrel hanging from a wire that they're shooting the hose at. The opposing team is spraying from the other side. Kind of, like tug-of-war only whomever gets the barrel to the opposite side wins.

[@BlessedBaubles]

Oh my gosh! This is my second video of yours that I’m watching and I’m learning SO MUCH!! I can’t get over how many things you know so much about! I enjoy your personality and knowledge so much. God bless, cousin!

[@RustyTheReseller]

Thank you for the kind words. Definitely hope this information can help you!

[@CJSPENO]

Looks like Postcards have a HUGE learning curve. I’ve been collecting postcards for a few years. I source other goods but I’d like to start selling my cards. Seems confusing. Thanks for videos ❤

[@carolgiersch677]

Rusty, Five and ten cents store love your info

[@blackdogvintagemi]

Thank you so much for your videos! I have been doing jewelry, beads and clothing (and occasional home decor) for over 20 years on eBay…. Now I am starting to get slightly obsessed with ephemera and I blame you 😂 But for real… I went full time this year and I appreciate you because I have learned to not over look some of these small items!

[@amberpearce222]

I have recently started collecting vintage postcards ( i only have 10 so far ) !!! Im really hoping to find more on ebay soon!

[@theficklefish]

How do you organize your postcards after you list them to make it easy to find one if it sells?

[@swissuz]

Your "S 10 Store" was referred to as a "Five and Dime Store". I suppose it's equivalent to today's Dollar General. My mother worked at a Five and Dime Store when she was a teen in the early 30s. @16:19

[@alexmetz8674]

You're the man Rusty. Thanks for the videos!

[@RustyTheReseller]

Glad you like them!

[@janismcdonald2534]

Thanks I will start looking!

[@threewheeler624]

Thank you for the great video. If you ever felt the urge to dive deeper into the topic you could talk about the valuable post cards by Ellen H. Clapsaddle or other artist.

[@ginadrab6199]

Thank you. I find your presentation very interesting. I have a panoramic tour guide guide of Montreal with about a dozen pictures of famous sites. Postage stamp is :4/1947. I have no idea what to price it for. Thank you. Gigi D

[@alexwolf7164]

32:44 Is Montenegro, Cetinje is the city there where this photo was taken. Thats what it says in the cancel but in cirilic. Nice video!

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

12:33 postal card!! That’s amazing that you live there and you know that area and you could tell it looks significantly different. I think this would people buy I was watching antique Rochell last night and they were talking about this map and it was worth like $40,000 or something I don’t know if just people want that kind of visual impact in time 🕰

[@henrys3629]

Thanks for the info. I wish I had more $$ when I hit a 25c each 1900's-1930's collection. Must have been a thousand+. Did not realize at the time many of my favorite vendors/stores would close up shop for good or stop their $1 buy-it-now sales. I've collected current postmarks from Oregon, WA, CA, Alaska and HI using forgotten/vintage cards.

[@RustyTheReseller]

Right on

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Oh that is a good tip to know I should check antique stores thank you

[@harrymoger]

Nice job Rusty, tuning in from Mallorca Spain ...

[@stormwalker321]

thanks Rusty! I really enjoyed this!

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Thank you for breaking it down for me I bought a postcard a few months ago and a half and across your video after and I wanted to keep them all because you’re so cool I really should sell some of them so thanks for showing me little details in nuances that I can use for reselling

[@julienorman]

Very nice lot of postcards! That guy kind of looked like Dali, definitely had the pistachio mustache look.

[@RustyTheReseller]

Right?!

[@davidmathews9393]

Great video- would like more info on pricing. Cheers

[@BlueMorganna]

I'm from Mansfield Ohio. Hope you get big money for that card.

[@bettykeith8580]

Oh My Gosh all these Indiana cards all the area my grandparent and mom lived . I’ve lived in Elwood area lol I’d love to see what was compatible to today😊

[@em1jae1el]

The S10 at 16:24 is 5 cent and 10 cent, also known as a "five n' dime" store. Similar ideology to today's dollar store.

[@redpiano1]

One question: when you are listing the postcards, do you erase the old prices and booth numbers from the cards before photography? (I scan postcards, it's easier to do in larger lots at once.) If you use a "white" eraser (not a Pink Pearl!) gently, you can erase the pencil marks without smearing the graphite or damaging the antique paper.

[@harborgurl]

37:46 the little girl photo- my Momma called it "tying your hair up in rags" in the morning you have glorious curls .......to make the 'rags' we would rip strips from old rags- she preferred flannel

[@jcoats150]

Thanks.

[@lindabattaglia7685]

Thank You !

[@sharonb537]

16:16 Thats not an 'S 10 store' its a 5 and dime store (5 and 10)

[@NikPikThrift]

New subscriber! Glad i found your channel!!!

[@RustyTheReseller]

Yay! Thank you!

[@PeggyMorgan-w9j]

I found an old particle board trunk after my Grandmother passed full of old postcards..bugs had gotten to some in the bottom but I took all the rest out and put in photo albums for their protection..all perfect condition some US some European..but at least 200 or more..any suggestions??

[@jericrabtree8885]

Curious if you have any info or related early stereoscopic photos haven't seen much

[@bettykeith8580]

The lil girl in the crib and same girl on another with the funny bows sliver her head lol Is called rags I’m 58 and my mother when I was little would put my hair in “ rags “ at bed So when they take them out for church or what ever your hair would be curled . My hair was long so I’d have long ringlet curls I forgot all about that lol

[@debbiemcdowell849]

It's the 5 and 10 cent store, they called them the Five and dime it was kinda like the dollar tree is now or Bonanza 88 cent store

[@hippiecowgirl4231]

I have two vintage postcards from Spain that are beautifully embroidered. Do you think they are worth anything?

[@juliegreen9312]

Minute 6:02. Any idea what that weird stamp is with the number 1 left bottom corner? I see it occasionally would love to know what it represents thank you

[@tinataylor2698]

Your Indiana postcard you said “s 10 store” that is a five and dime store 😉😂

[@jessieferrer2405]

I have post card over 100 yrs 12pcs post card

[@Czrx66]

My wife found a ton of post cards form 1903 to 1909 from her stepdads home that passed away. Any suggestions what we can do with them?

[@tedlawrence4189]

The lithography on the early 20th century cards, made in Germany, is wonderful.

[@nataliasanchez1838]

Some postcards have a small number in the corner, for example 08921/6. What does that mean? Is that the number of postcards of that one that exist?

[@JoelCaradies]

Has anyone ever dealt with Cherryland postcard auctions? Thanks

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Question 🙋‍♀️ where is best place to sell post cards?

[@jerrymiller7738]

Have you made a video's on how to sell post cards

[@RustyTheReseller]

Not recently, I guess I should!

[@CJSPENO]

How do u figure out how to price cards.. ?

[@oldrider]

In case no one else has told you what you called the S 10 store is called the five and dime store.

[@catbee1452]

5 and 10 store. (aka: nickel and dime store)

[@CountessOlaf]

Hey Rusty, I have some nice old postcards. In your other post card video, you mention several artists. I promptly ran to my collection but I don’t see any artist names. Would the artist be marked on the card?

[@RustyTheReseller]

Great. Yes, look on the lower left or right of the card, you may find the signature of the artist. Look for Brundage, Clapsaddle, etc..

[@dottymcclannen9533]

Any secrets on how to erase the pencil written price written on the card?

[@RustyTheReseller]

You can usually just use a standard eraser, though i"ve never had trouble selling cards with the writing on the back. It's very common and not that hard to remove most of the time..

[@loreleilivingston7443]

$$ How do you sell BIN ? Auction? - Search Ebay? I don't see alot of the main streets. Is there someone that would look up cards like on worthpoint ect. or whever postcard collectors go. Thank you for any help with information.

[@RustyTheReseller]

I mostly search Ebay for postcard values bc they change over time...If you can't find the same card, look at similar cards and then base your estimate on those..

[@kayhollins4111]
