Description:
Real photo postcard, probably British. Real photo
postcards were first popular in the early decades of the
20th century, and are still made today. Not to be
confused with mass produced, lithographed postcards,
these are actual photographs with postcard markings
printed on the back of the photographic paper. The
arrangement and design of the postcard backing can
often be used to date the card. Some real photo
postcards are multiple-printed images produced for
sale by professional photographers. Others are unique
prints, snapshots or other photographs which were
printed on the postcard back rather than on standard
photographic paper. These are the most valuable,
since they are essentially one-of-a-kind images. The
value of a photograph is not to be diminished merely
because it is printed on a postcard back. As an
example, vintage real photo cards made by Andre
Kertesz in the 1930s now sell for tens of thousands of
dollars each. Keywords:
