Ted:

I do not consider them to be the same... but others may beg to differ.

To me, I think you have to consider the INTENT of the item.

A "postcard" was intended to be written on and mailed... not collected in large numbers or in pristine condition.

An "exhibit card" was intended to be purchased solely for collecting and NOT to be written on or stamped, etc.


Thus, there are many more people who consider Exhibit cards to be "real" baseball cards than people who consider "Postcards" to be "real" baseball cards.
