This postcard shows the front entrance at the Sands Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas Nevada. The card is not dated, but looking at the vehicles in the parking lot, I'd guess it's from the late 1960s to early 1970s. I'm also guessing that time frame because I recently purchased a collection of vintage postcards of the Vegas area and all others were from the 60s decade.
Also, the front shows the marquee announcing Steve Lawrence, Corbett Monika, and Buddy Greco are the appearing entertainers.
The description on the back of the card states:
Sands Hotel
One of the most beautiful on the fabylous strip in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The card number is 6DK-316
The card measures roughly 3.5 by 5.5 inches and has great color. The card has straight even edges. The card has a divided back, meaning one side for the address and one side for writing a message.
CONDITION:
I am not a postcard collector and don't know how to 'rate" postcards. Personally, I think the card is in great condition for being around 60 years old. There are no bends, tears, or cracking. On the front of the card, mainly at the corners, there are extremely tiny spots of white at the very edge. There's also one of these spots on the left side. It's almost as if the picture didn't quite make it to the edge so I research this and did find where that was quite common years ago. The card is postally unused and has not been addressed or written on.
SHIPPING:
Buyer to pay $3.50 First Class Mail delivery charges. That cost will cover shipping for up to the purchase of 4 postcards.
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased as long as all items will safely fit into a single box. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING CHARGES: Twice yearly, and again in November for the holiday season (so three times per year) the postal service increases shipping charges. This is what they call their "Delivering For America" plan in which they hope to become profitable. It's a 10 year plan that started in 2021, so we've got years to go with multiple price increases on shipping charges each year. I try to absorb the new charges and haven't increased my shipping charges in three years. This year unfortunately, I have to if I want to stay in business. I'll try to keep it reasonable and even absorb some of the increases when possible.
INTERNATIONAL PURCHASED: Sorry, I do not ship to locations outside of the United States.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they come from homes where smoking or pets were present. Unless otherwise stated, all items are sold in the same condition as when I obtained them.
