York Beach, Maine

Greetings From York Beach, Maine

Mailed on August 18, 1968. Chrome. Okay condition, but the front has some old tape along the top and the back is quite yellowed.

HANDWRITTEN: “Hi Marge,
We have a motel right across the street from the ocean. There’s a beautiful breeze tonight. We’re spending tomorrow at the beach & going shopping tomorrow night. It’s really beautiful here.
Love,
Marty”

*Note: I covered up the address for privacy when I took these photos for Instagram. While unlikely the recipients of this postcard still live at this same location all these years later, I figure better safe than sorry. Needless to say, the postcard doesn’t actually have a line over the address.

Product Description

Welcome to my postcard collection! Here's the rundown:

I have a couple thousand cards and am steadily cataloging them here. Above all, it's a hobby. A true love of history, travel, vintage artwork, and the little nuances of life. As an artist and writer, I get so much inspiration from all the people and places you'll find here.

Yes. I really am that nerdy.

I've managed to completely fund my collection by selling off some cards here and there. Some are listed for sale in my Etsy shop , but most are not due to listing fees and, quite simply, time. That said, there's a good chance I'd be willing to sell a lot of these, whether they're officially for sale or not. If you find some you'd like to add to your collection, email me at kaleigh@thingsarelovely.net and I'll get back to you. There are some that I won't part with, but a lot of them don't particularly mean a whole lot to me. I'd rather cards go to someone who specifically wants them, than for me to hold on to them in the name of "collecting", ya know?

My current plan for payment is via Venmo or Etsy.

If you have any other thoughts, comments, questions, suggestions, or words of interest, please feel free to hit me up as well.

I look forward to hearing from you!
