Manuscript / Paper Collectible
No Binding. Condition: Collectible-Very Good. Original black and white photo postcard. No date, circa 1925-1942. 5 1/2" x 3 1/2." Title printed at the bottom of the image. "DOPS" stamp box printed on the back was used from 1925-1942. Postcard is unused. Postcard is very clean and intact overall but has slight age toning along the edges on the front, a faint fingerprint in the upper-right corner on front, and slight corner and edge wear. A Very Good copy. The imprint of "Sanborn" and "X-900" are printed in the lower-right corner on the image. This is the imprint of Harold Sanborn, a photographer and publisher of postcards who was active from about 1920-1960. Sanborn's postcards can be recognized by his diagonal signature followed by a letter and nuimber. Sanborn is notable for being one of the most prolific photographers who took pictures of Colorado and Wyoming. His immense portfolio provides detailed documentation of places and daily life in the region at the time. Sanborn's postcards are highly collectable, in part, due to how many postcards he produced as well as the meticulous records he kept of both his postcards and negatives. In addition to photography, Sanborn was known for his love of trains. This postcard is a good example of his interests as it showcases a streamliner about to travel on an overpass spanning a curving highway. It should be noted that while the imprint of "Sanborn" is on the postcard, there is documentation that says the "X" series of his postcards actually featured images taken by other photographers that were subsequently printed by his studio.
