1907 Real Photo Postcard RPPC BENKLEMAN, NEBRASKA NE Small Town USA Horses Buggy:
$17.50

AUTHENTIC Matte Antique Real Photo Postcard RPPC Postmarked 1907 depicting an overhead view ORIGINAL of a STREET SCENE in BENKLEMAN, NEBRASKA, NE.This is SMALL TOWN AMERICA at its best!! As of 2022, the population of Benkleman was 787 and declining. It is the county seat of Dundy County and looks like a nice place to retire. It is located in the lower southwest part of the state. Back when an itinerant photographer took this photo of Benkleman in 1907, there was a DIRT ROAD going through the main drag of town, several store fronts including a DRUG STORE and a LUMBER YARD, HORSES and a BUGGY, and off on the outskirts of town were several HOUSES and a CHURCH. There are 7 other postcards on of Benkleman. One is this exact card except it is a copy This current listing is an postmarked ORIGINAL (see photos 10 and 11). The other bird's eye view of Benkleman is going for $42!! Compare that with the $17.50 I am asking plus the BEST OFFER feature. I would barely make a very modest profit if it sells as this card was not cheap for me to acquire. A 1922 RPPC street scene of Benkleman is going for $39.99!! A multi-view RPPC for $27.50!! Another for $19 and the last two are less expensive but both are copies. In good condition according to the Postcard Rating System with extremely mild corner wear (barely noticeable) and some discoloration in the form of a very faint half circle in the upper left corner and a few words written in the bottom border (many would consider a part of the card's history and not a flaw at all). There is a very small white area on top of the town's horizon at the right side of the card. This is a printing error and not a flaw in the card's condition. Otherwise, I see no evidence of edge wear, rips, tears, creases, bends, or pinholes. But, please see photos and you be the judge. Standard size 5.5” x 3.5”. IMPORTANT POSTCARD SHIPPING INFORMATION: I have switched over to the Standard Envelope system. This allows for inexpensive shipping and also a tracking number. It applies to postcards, trading cards, coins and stamps and works for items up to 3 ounces in weight. The shipping cost is as follows:.64 cents per 1 oz, .88 cents per 2 oz, and $1.12 per 3 oz. For multiple item purchases. PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE PAYING as I will have to weigh your items and send you an INVOICE. Any card over $20 in price does not qualify for this program. If you have more than 3 cards or your card is over $20, you must ship via USPS Ground Advantage, the cost of which would be determined by based upon the package dimensions and your zip code. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Please ask questions before buying and let the photos guide you as well. I was a long time seller on some 15-20 years ago with 100% positive response which I maintain to this day. Buy with confidence! And, thank you for looking!!
