Original 1913 (postmark date) real photo postcard showing Summerland College for Women run by the Lutheran Church in either Leesville or Summerland, South Carolina
The first scan (only) is "tweaked" just a tad to show more details.
The postcard you will receive will look more like scans 2 & 3.
Standard size postcard
As of 10 July 2021, I could find no other views of this South Carolina college on ebay. In fact I had a somewhat difficult time tracking this college down but finally found it doing a google search for Summerland College and going to the 2nd page of google results under an historic newspaper website. They showed an ad for the college with a similar photo (but not exactly the same) and giving 2 different South Carolina towns as the location: Summerland and Leesville - the latter town apparently being the local post office town.
rather faded and somewhat stained on the recto (picture side) of card (the scans of the negative caption and the one NOT showing the penny were tweaked a bit - the scan showing the penny is an accurate presentation of what the card actually looks like); verso is missing stamp but shows Saluda South Carolina postmark dated August 1913.
Fair to Good only
. . . . . . . . . . .
Remember that the
Abraham Lincoln Penny
is not attached to the item. It is put on the scanner bed merely to protect the uniqueness or near uniqueness of an image so that the high bidder gets an item that has not been copied via someone's computer. The penny DOES NOT hide any faults or any damage!

WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
NO EXCEPTIONS.
FREE SHIPPING via stiff plastic postcard holder and/or cardboard + plastic sleeve protected 1st class mail, STANDARD RATE.
Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page" - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - it is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Parcel." Buyer MAY opt in (at a small-ish extra charge) for upgraded 1st class mail package rate (with TRACKING #)  at checkout if they choose to do so.
I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
business
days (Mon-Fri)
max
- often less than that.
PAYPAL IS THE MUCH PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT.
Thanks!
Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
NOT
FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
