Linen Postcards

The linen style postcards were first created by the Curt Teich company around 1930. The earliest linen card related to the airlines that I've seen was postmarked 1931. Some of the White Border postcards were also made in the new Linen postcard format. Linen postcards are usually brightly colored cards with a textured surface on the front. The last linen postcard I've seen related to the airlines was postmarked 1958 so they fit in the range of the first 50 years of airline related postcards. They are my favorite type of color postcards. Linen postcards are all made by American postcard manufacturers but a few foreign airlines had cards made for distribution in the U.S. There are many airport related cards including a few from Latin America as well as airline issues.
