Here we have for sale a job lot of 9 antique and collectable Locomotive Train Postcards. Only 1 of the cards has been posted in the past and the 8 have never been posted
After doing some research we think all 9 postcards will date before the 1920s with some dating from the early 1900s so they are all antique items. Please do your own research into them
The postcards have a bit info about their featured locomotive printed on either the fronts or rears of their cards
The 9 postcards in our lot are............

These are antique postcards that we rate to be in overall decent condition with some signs of their age and wear present. We noticed 1 of the postcards has quite a bit of age yellowing on its rear (see photo 19). Overall we would say the cards display well. Make sure you look at all the 19 photos we have provided to view the fronts and rears of all 9 postcards and also decide on their condition for yourself. Any questions about them please ask, we are happy to answer any queries
They will be sent well protected for transit in a small box with parcel tracking provided
