Antique & Vintage Postcards

Decorative early postcard combining a sepia engraving of Faneuil Hall, Boston, with an ornate chromolithographed rendering of the Boston city seal — a gold medallion bearing the Latin motto "Sicut Patribus, Sit Deus Nobis" and "Bostonia Condita AD 1630," encircled by a red and blue heraldic border incorporating books and a quill. The card is from Raphael Tuck & Sons' Heraldic Series No. 5013, designed in the U.S.A. and printed in Bavaria.
