Old West Vintage Postcards |
This is an eclectic collection, the only thing these postcards have in common is a connection to the old west. But they're an interesting group! I can vouch for the postcard descriptions in only some of these, but many have a bit of readable printing, so I believe, for the most part, they are accurate. If you see anything you know to be in error, please let me know. Enjoy. Nancy |
