Decorative Postcard Holder-Sunbonnet Twins
Item #: NEW-0015958
|
Click image to enlarge
|
This has got to be a rare item. It measures 6 and 3/4 inches tall and 8 and 1/2 inches wide. It is made of a sturdy cardboard, lined with felt. The center piece is a Sunbonnet Twins postcard. It and the front top and middle area is covered with celluloid or some other kind of protective film. The stand does not have the celluloid which explains why it is faded and worn in places. I have used it to keep my most precious cards. It would be an added bonus if you are a collector of the Sunbonnet Twins.

Reduced price
They don't come any better than this. Postmarked from Mammoth Springs , real photo postcard. This was actually an event that happened. Sometime ago, I found a newspaper report of this and though I can't find it again, I copied the account. " Killed by Posse in Bank-Three masked men entered the Citizens Bank at Mammoth Springs Arkansas and robbed the bank while two others stood guard outside. The cashier was locked in the vault and the robbers took all the cash inside. For 10 days bank officials have known that an attempt would be made to rob he bank. In preparation the Sheriff had rounded up a posse and was hidden in the back room of the bank when the robbery occurred. As the robbers were leaving, the officers opened fire on them with Winchester rifles. One of the robbers who was instantly killed, had 22 bullets enter his body. The other robbers were captured uninjured."
Small corner crease on the upper left hand corner and some wear to the others. Light indentations can be seen when the card under a light with some light scratching. The body is in the foreground on the left bottom area.
Note: I don't use watermarks as a rule but I don't want this item to be copied
