Description: Original Real Photo Postcard image of Marfa, Texas The image shows the Main Street of Marfa and the Presidio County Courthouse in the center. The postcard is in excellent condition with no bends or creases. Corners are slightly bumped. Postally unused. Does have multiple writing on the back. There is some paper remnant stuck to the upper left corner. I have never tried to remove it. Please look at the photos as they are part of the description. I have been collecting real photo postcard images of Far West Texas for over thirty years and have decided to start selling some of my treasures so that other collectors can enjoy them. They will not be cheap because of the rarity of the cards. Also, because of the time and trouble I have invested in them. I traveled tens of thousands of miles to different towns and cities throughout Texas and some other states going to postcard, book and paper, collector and gun shows. Checking out antique shops and second hand stores. Going to auctions before eBay existed and spending tens of thousands of hours culling through hundreds of thousands of postcards. Then came eBay and I have spent over ten thousand hours going through hundreds of thousands of postcards. I paid dearly for the items I offer on eBay as a collector, what I am trying to say is the search, finding, buying, storing and protecting took a lot of time, money and effort. I might end up having my collection cataloged and then selling it to an academic institution to realize the biggest return on my investment, but I will wait to see how it goes on eBay first.
