New York: Album of 139 Printed Postcards ERIE CANAL TUGBOATS TUGS BOATS BARGES

Description: Remember to to pay for all your purchases with ONE payment to insure you get combined shipping for the best price. We'll refund excess postage on combined orders, but not on separate orders, so please wait and pay all at once, not after each lot closes. We get charged 30-40¢ for every separate order, and it makes it prohibitive to combine for shipping. New York: Album of 139 Printed Postcards ERIE CANAL TUGBOATS TUGS BOATS BARGES All made by same unknown printer in USA, these are black offset halftone reproductions of various vintage photographs of apparently all Erie Barge Canal vessels, with perhaps other canal images as well? I assume them to have been made within the past 20-50 years, no older. Each card is different, no duplicates. Oddly, I can find no information on these, nor can I find any other examples on the internet. These are not copying machine xeroxes, but true offset printing press postcards. The text on back is printed in black halftone as well. There are 117 canal tugs or similar, 20 barges/working boats, and 2 oddballs. All are pictured below, scanned while still in their ultra-pro page sleeves. Sleeves and binder are included, if you want to save about a pound in shipping costs, I can leave out the canvas/denim type binder, and ship just the cards in their sleeves. Just let me know before I ship. Conditions appear to be all near mint to mint, without creases. 241127 / 9539 R12/8/2024 AUS _____________________________ First Class orders now called Ground Advantage, and will include delivery confirmation. Additional purchases may be combined if bought same day on same order, for one shipping rate, if possible to ship same via the same USPS service (eBay claims international shipments will soon include this option too). Add to your cart and request total from seller for combined shipping, or at least pay all on the same order, and we’ll refund any difference. Sales Tax, import duties, etc. may apply, that's between you and ebay now. Please read and accept my terms of sale below before you bid/buy. IN YOUR COMPUTER BROWSER, RIGHT-CLICK ON A PHOTO AND SELECT "VIEW IMAGE" TO SEE THE ORIGINAL LARGE IMAGE: You will find that the originals of the photos below are often larger than what ebay provides above. BY BIDDING ON OR PURCHASING THIS ITEM, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING SELLER TERMS: 1) COMBINED SHIPPING/POSTAGE: a. I happily combine shipping (where possible, sometimes it isn't), but orders over $10 total will likely require tracking now because of unacceptable Postal Service delays resulting in INR claims. Tracking/delivery confirmation seems to speed up shipments. So there might not be a discount on several inexpensive items combined, and you accept this. All international orders will require tracking, as provided by eBay. b. If you haven't paid yet for multiple purchases, please wait for a combined invoice, which may take up to 24 hours to send you. Don't worry, it's not a race to see how fast you can pay. c. If you must pay immediately, make sure all the items are on the same payment transaction (same order). I will then be able to combine shipping (if possible) and send you a partial refund for overpayment of postage. Some people make numerous multiple purchases with separate payments and look for a shipping discount. That will not happen, so please add your items to your cart, and when you are done looking at my stuff, buy it all at once. Thanks! 2) POSTAGE: All USPS postage rates are calculated using the most affordable (not the quickest) shipping class, based on a pre-sale estimated weight and size of the package. Sometimes multiple options are offered. If you want to upgrade to a quicker, more expensive postal class not shown, you must let me know BEFORE you pay. All requests for special handling, extra packaging, etc. must be made prior to payment so that invoice can be adjusted. 3) INSURANCE: In the event of loss or damage on insured packages, buyer agrees to fulfill all requirements of the insurer in the processing of a claim, or forfeits their right to request a refund. 4) SALES TAX: Ebay has taken over all responsibility for sales tax collection for all states that require it. I have no control whatsoever over who pays sales tax, it is out of my hands. The same is true for all international taxes, duties and VAT. Please direct all questions/complaints to the good folks at Ebay. 5) INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: We no longer ship any merchandise (as in postcards) via letter rate internationally. It is prohibited by the UPU (subject to seizure or return), and is also not trackable. International shipping is offered as a courtesy to those who can afford it, and is handled entirely through eBay. All Import duties, taxes, and charges are handled by eBay as well. I no longer ship directly, because of the excessive amount of “item not received” claims, resulting in my loss. Most of my international postcard buyers, who prefer to pay the lower letter rate postage, have a friend/relative in the USA to whom I can ship several postcards in a letter (for about $1.00-1.50 at time of this listing), and will specify this prior to payment. If you do this, then that friend will forward the postcards in a letter rate envelope to you the buyer, and the shipping risk will be yours, not mine. Multiple purchases can also be combined when you ship to a USA recipient. This is the way of the future on ebay, as more and more sellers move away from the risks of untracked international letter rate mail. 6) REPRODUCTION OF IMAGES: Seller is not selling the exclusive rights to reproduce images of the item offered. Buyer is of course free to reproduce as they wish, but seller retains and may exercise the right to reproduce any images of the item for any purpose before or after the sale, without permission from or compensation to the buyer. 7) LISTING DISCREPANCIES: If the Title, Description, and/or Photo on a listing do not match, for gosh sakes don't buy it. Mistakes happen. Let me know instead so I can fix the listing. If you do buy, the item described in the Title of the listing takes precedence over anything else. If you don't agree with that, I will consider that your request to cancel the transaction of the faulty listing.
