Welcome to The Checkered Chickie! We are in the process of uploading a large selection of postcards, including RPPCs and most pre-1940s, along with some more modern chromes. New postcards will be added weekly, so check our store often for updates.

A Note About Postcard Dating: We research each card to determine its date of manufacture. We use several different methods and resources to do this, and if a date cannot be determined (which is not too often), a guesstimate with a ? will be noted in the title. Keep in mind that a postmark is not always accurate. We have found cards with postmark dates several decades later than the manufacture of the card. Postmark dates are helpful, but other criteria such as content, back style, stamp used, publisher info, etc. must all agree with the postmark date for that to be used. Circa, or a c. or c before a date means it is a close estimate.

Please know we send your card in rigid mailers for protection during shipping to keep your card looking its best! If you have any questions, just send us an email. We would be happy to help.
