Taxonomy of JD McCarthy Reverse Styles
| After studying hundreds of McCarthy postcards, I assembled this taxonomy of thirteen different reverse styles used by McCarthy over the years. By comparing scores of postmarked examples, I was able to determine a date range for each style. This taxonomy is an ongoing project, subject to frequent revision based on newly discovered postmarked examples. |
