Collecting Vintage Valentine's Day Cards
Are you interested in collecting vintage Valentine's Day Postcards?
Vintage Valentine's Day Postcards are beautiful reminders of love from long ago. Collecting them is a hobby of mine.
The Victorian artwork is outstanding and they make lovely decorations when framed and displayed in your home but for me the best part is reading the little messages lovers have sent to one another.
The formal name for postcard collecting is Deltiology, but I prefer to think of myself as a collector, not a deltiologist because I am not an expert. I'm just someone who enjoys collecting postcards as a hobby.

Quick Guide to Collecting Vintage Valentine Postcards
Collecting Vintage postcards is a hobby of mine. I don't claim to be an expert, just someone who enjoys looking at antique valentines.I collect my postcards for enjoyment alone. My collection is not worth a fortune and never will be but my cards are valuable to me because I love them and that is what I suggest to you. Buy postcards that you love, not postcards that you think are going to be valuable. A postcard is only worth what another collector is willing to pay.
Postcards are very delicate and must be handled and stored with care. Framing them is a good way to preserve them, as is keeping them in plastic protector sleeves. Never expose your vintage postcards to sunlight or heat and don't keep them in your basement or attic.
Postcard ratings are basically self-explanatory, Mint, Excellent, Good, Fair, and Poor.
Price guides can be helpful in determining what your postcards are worth but you can also get a good idea of their value by watching similar cards at auctions like eBay. I've included some eBay postcard auctions on this page to help you get started. If you see something you'd like to bid on simply click on the product link and you will be brought directly to eBay where you can bid and buy with confidence.
Enjoy!
