Start Your Vintage Halloween Postcard Collection Today

I've included several eBay searches in order for you to see what is available and for you to get an idea of the price ranges of collectible vintage Halloween Postcards.

I've bought most of my post cards from eBay and I haven't been disappointed yet. Just be sure to read all of the fine print and check for comments on the condition of the card you are purchasing. Mint is best, poor is worst and anything in between should be carefully explained.

How to Determine the Price of a Vintage Halloween Postcard

I wish I had the magic answer for you here but determining the price of a vintage Halloween postcard is basically the same as determining the price of any collectible. Your postcard is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it.

Of course the rarer your card is, and the conditon of your post card play a huge roll in determining it's value, if no one wants it, you won't be able to sell it for much.

To get a general idea of what your particular vintage post card is worth you will need to do a bit of studying. Get a price guide. Study the fluctuating prices at ebay for a while, not just a day or two, but for at least a month. Visit vintage Halloween postcard dealers online.

After you've done all of that, compare the condition of your card to the others that you have seen and then you should have a pretty good idea of what your particular postcard is worth.

Why I Collect Used Halloween Postcards?

Although mint condition postcards are much more valuable, I like collecting the ones that have been used better. I love to read the old messages on them - A window to the past, I suppose. (or maybe I'm just nosy!)

    In better times I use to collect Ellen Clapsaddle's postcards; I had to sell all but a few when my mother passed and I had gone through my savings being her caretaker. I had one of my cards bring in $200 (yay Payday!!!) but many I think I broke even (and actually lost money on, eBay is the worst place to sell them).

    I started my antique postcard collection with the assistance of a lady called Serena who runs a local antique shop. She kept a shoebox of antique postcards for sale on a small table in the corner - and I'd go there to rumage through the box. There were real treasures there! For $1 and $2 (and sometimes $3), I could buy a Tuck or a B&B or a Winsch. When I see cards by these designers for sale on eBay, I'm amazed at Serena's prices - she made these classics affordable. I remember finding a card that had no maker's name, but the date "1896" written on the back - no pricetag. When Serena saw how enthusiastic I was to find a card of this age (it's still the oldest in my collection), she sold it to me for $2. These cards I bought at Serena's are still the 'core' of my collection - though I've bought more than a hundred or more from eBay since. Thanks for making this lens.
