Just Arrived in NY the Wonder City No place like it!
Ok Postcard Travelers buckle up in your Lazyboy and
put your coat on! We are heading north to New York
City the Wonder City.
This postcard is a photo postcard. I have been to New
York City twice. Everyone should go there. Once I went
in the 60s and all the women had Jackie Kennedy hairdos.
And looking down from the hotel there were people walking
all through the night! Not like Sun City Center in Florida!
The other time was to visit our daughter in Staten
Island. We were there and took the ferry over on New
Years Day and it was cold! But the perfect day to take
the bus tour around town. Loved it!The only thing I want
to go back to see are the Rockettes.
Anyway, this postcard is up for auction on Ebay and described
here:

Wild Bill and the Card Game Look So Real!
So many postcards and so little space to enjoy them! Fellow Downsizers...Now here is the way to do it!
Buy my postcard notecards and send them on to a person to enjoy with you, instead of keeping them cramped up in boxes til you conk out or forget where they are.
The white envelope is about 5 1/4 inches by about 7 1/4 inches. On the front of the note card is the permanently attached vintage postcard. The second pic gives you a closeup of the permanently attached postcard.
In this case on the back on an attached label is what was on the back of the postcard:
Wild Bill Hickok's last poker hand, which was played August 2, 1876 at Deadwood,Dakota Territory is portrayed with wax figures at Southwestern Historical Wax Museum, Grand Prairie, Texas.
Inside the note card, it is blank for you to add your very own message you want instead of the dorky ones people get paid to write for the card companies. Go creative and enjoy!

Zippo Use It to Start Something. Do you still have a Zippo?
Got me to thinking. After most of us downsizers stopped
smoking years ago lighters seemed to disappear.
Do you still have one? Then I got to thinking
wonder if they still make Zippos. Sure do.

And the Last But Not Least Part of the Downsizer Plan TIME
Contract your mind to have an end date to
have the downsized stuff out of your life
from the first day you decide to give it up
and pass it on. Write it down and stick to
it. I have not been doing that and I started
wasting my life trying to sell these cards.
But I am back on track. I have a plan to list 10
100 postcard lots a day til they are all online.
If they do not sell by January 7th I will not
drop the price I will give them to a group
I already give things to. And this is the 10th
lot for today! Amen ! The plan takes the
stress out of your life and gives you the
ok to do what you hav e to do to get
them to their next happy owners!

Have Your $ Plan and Your Happiness Plan Before You Downsize
Ahhhh! Love those people in Tarpon Springs!
Good looking and healthy looking!
REAL downsizers go for the $ but won't
dump the happiness of the next owner aspect either.
Right now it is hard to get your ideal
$$$ so have a bottom amount you will accept
and if you can't get
that ...GIVE it away and make someone
happy who can't afford it rather than
give it to the person who just wants
it for its flipping value and tries to drive the
price down even lower.
