Thanks Kevin,

Makes sense. I thought I had heard/read a similar explanation for the blank Rose postcards in the past but have never seen an example of a DIY card filled in like that.

Thanks for sharing it!

Default 52 Rose Co. Postcards!
Back in1979, I walked into a coin store here in Traverse City. They had just picked up a big batch of old baseball postcards and pins. They wanted $400 for everything. We really didn’t have the money, but my supportive wife urged me to go for it. Among the postcards were 52 Rose Co. postcards, with only 2 doubles. I sold them to Frank Keetz of New York, who is a postcard expert from New York. We were both pleased with the deal.

wow, statistically that would almost have to be the biggest single find.

Luckily, I made a checklist of all 52 Rose Co. postcards. When I saw on this thread how few of the Rose postcards had benn accounted for, I figured my “find” - 43 years ago, had to be one of the biggest.
