View Vintage 1908 Raphael Tuck Birthday Postcard Farm Landscape Pink Geraniums with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Expect potential delays of up to 3 weeks within the U.S. This exquisite antique birthday postcard, published by the renowned Raphael Tuck & Sons, features a beautiful combination of floral artistry and a rustic pastoral scene. The front showcases vibrant pink geraniums and delicate blue forget-me-nots surrounding a unique, gold-embossed scalloped frame. Inside the frame is a charming color lithograph of a country farm at sunset, complete with a red barn and split-rail wooden fence. This card is a part of the 'Birthday Post Cards' series and carries the prestigious Royal Warrant as 'Art Publishers to Their Majesties the King & Queen.' Produced in Germany during the Golden Age of postcards, the piece exhibits high-quality chromolithography and elegant embossing that adds texture and depth to the floral arrangement. The reverse side features a divided back with a clear 1908 New York postmark and a green one-cent Benjamin Franklin postage stamp. The handwritten message and address provide a wonderful glimpse into early 20th-century correspondence, making it a perfect addition for collectors of Tuck Oilette series, floral greetings, or Edwardian era ephemera. If you choose " FREE " shipping, the card will be sleeved and sent in a thin cardboard mailer using  eBay Standard Envelope (ESE)  tracking. Note that ESE tracking only tracks movement between processing centers and does not provide mailbox-to-mailbox tracking. A " Delivered " or " Out For Delivery " scan indicates that the card has reached the final sorting center prior to your local post office; it may take a few extra days, to a week (& add up to an additional week during Xmas), to reach your mailbox. Expect potential delays of up to 3 weeks within the U.S. Free ESE Shipping Limitations:  The cardboard mailer cannot be marked "Do Not Bend" nor "Hand Cancel" and the card cannot be sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard, as these options disqualify it from ESE shipping. ? Upgraded Shipping - Ground Advantage or Priority: YOU may choose to pay for  Ground Advantage  or  Priority  shipping, during checkout, for added protection, which includes a sturdy, thick mailer and mailbox to mailbox USPS tracking. If you wish to upgrade from ESE to Ground Advantage or Priority shipping after your purchase, please contact me immediately, and I'll provide a link to an eBay listing for you to purchase the additional shipping cost.   Condition: Used.
