Description: This vintage postcard features rural mail carriers on horse and buggy in Chillicothe, Illinois in 1912. The black and white real photo captures the essence of a bygone era where mail was delivered by hand. The postcard is made of paper and has a divided back, allowing for a personal message to be written behind the photo. The postcard is a standard size of 5.5 x 3.5 inches and is an original, not a licensed reprint. It has been postmarked and is in good condition. This unique piece of history would make a great addition to any collection of topographical postcards or memorabilia from the early 1900s. WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY POSTCARD? ABOUT 7-10 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE. SHIPPING POSTCARDS WITH EBAY STANDARD ENVELOPES VIA USPS IS VERY GOOD, BUT A LITTLE DIFFERENT Please note that eBay standard envelope tracks your postcard to the post office, then the post office delivers it to your home address usually the next day. When it says that your postcard was delivered, eBay means to the post office, not your home address. This applies to standard envelopes only; regular ground advantage shipping tracks your postcard to your home address. Confusing, yes, but you will eventually get your postcard, just a day or two later than you expected if you use eBay standard shipping which is a low-cost way to ship postcards keeping buyer and seller happy so, please be patient. We use eBay standard envelope for postcards under $20, cards over that amount ship ground advantage (First Class) or Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box with delivery confirmation and insurance if it's a very expensive postcard. Thanks. "Good, better, best. Never let it rest. 'til your good is better and your better Best" St. Jerome
