Description: Antique Divided Back Postcard PC Postmarked 1919 From NEW MATAMORAS, OHIO OH. Card is posted with a one cent stamp and a lengthy message written in ink. Depicts a stop along a DIRT ROAD that looks quite a bit like an OLD GENERAL STORE in a very RURAL AREA. The previous vender of the card mistakenly wrote “New Matamours, OH postmark” on the back. But, my research shows there is a VERY SMALL TOWN CALLED NEW MATAMORAS of WASHINGTON COUNTY in Southeastern Ohio ALONG THE OHIO RIVER. The 2020 POPULATION was at 702. The population has been steadily declining since 1980. It looks to be a nice, family friendly little town. It also has the distinction of being SETTLED BY REVOLUTIONARY WAR VETERANS. Card is in GOOD CONDITION according to the Postcard Rating System with soft corners and very mild edge wear. It has a couple of very faint black spots and lines (barely visible) that look like they occurred during the printing process. Otherwise, I see no evidence of rips, tears, creases, bends, discoloration or pinholes. But, please see photos and you be the judge. Standard size 5.5” x 3.5”. IMPORTANT POSTCARD SHIPPING INFORMATION: I have switched over to the eBay Standard Envelope system. This allows for inexpensive shipping and also provides a tracking number. It applies to postcards, trading cards, coins and stamps and works for items up to 3 ounces in weight. The shipping cost is as follows: .64 cents per 1 oz, .88 cents per 2 oz, and $1.12 per 3 oz/ For multiple item purchases, PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE PAYING as I will have to weigh your items and send you an INVOICE. Any card over $20 in price does not qualify for this program. If you have more than 3 cards or your card is over $20, you must ship via regular USPS Ground Advantage, the cost of which is calculated by eBay based on the buyer’s zip code. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Please ask questions before buying and let the photos guide you as well. I was a long time seller on eBay some 15-20 years ago with 100% positive feedback which I maintain to this day. Buy with confidence! And, Thank you for looking!!
