Any postcards collectors lurking here?
Have been collecting postcards of Built America since 1970. My collection has been drastically downsized to about 90,000 cards, including cigar stores and factories, plus pre-embargo Cuba. The Postcards Room in our house had to be altered to make room for humidors, coolers and cigar boxes. Now anointed the Cigars & Cards Room. Here is a card snared from NJ postcards dealer Don Preziosi's site. It is a linen postcard circa 1940. Perhaps from 1935 when Tampa's cigar industry held a 50th golden jubilee gala. This is my dream date:

Re: postcards
What's nice about postcards is that they are infinite. You never could have every postcard, even if you were as rich as Bill Gates or Shilala.
Here's a cigars card that probably will cost you 50 cents at a postcards show. It's the Hotel Cecil lobby in San Diego, 1916. Looks like a neutron bomb herf:
