NOT A POSTCARD
- but a neat vintage Mobile view
TOTALLY Original ca. 1890-1900 (illus. on card shows only older streetcar and horse-drawn buggies and wagons as transportation in downtown Mobile) business card, about 3" deep by 4
1/2
" wide (a bit larger than modern-day business cards), printed one side, promoting this legendary old Mobile hotel.
Uncommon. As of 11 May 2020 I couldn't find this original piece of Hotel Bienville memorabilia listed anywhere else on ebay
1st & 2nd illustrations are a recent scan; the other 2 illustrations are photos
Upper left hand corner broken off (not affecting any text nor the line cut illustration), else VG, clean card.

WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
NO EXCEPTIONS.
FREE SHIPPING via stiff plastic postcard holder and/or cardboard + plastic sleeve protected 1st class mail, STANDARD RATE.
Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page" - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - it is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Parcel." Buyer MAY opt in (at a small-ish extra charge) for upgraded 1st class mail package rate (with TRACKING #)  at checkout if they choose to do so.
I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
business
days (Mon-Fri)
max
- often less than that.
PAYPAL IS THE MUCH PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT.
Thanks!
Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
NOT
FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
