Choosing a stamps postcards lot usually comes down to two questions: what do you want to do with it, and how much postal history do you want in one package? The four lots here range from $3.40 to $60, and each takes a different approach. The cheapest is a designed postcard set with stamp artwork. The priciest is a mixed vintage postal bundle. In between, there's a holiday greeting collection and a large batch of unused-stamp postcards.
Quick take: The $3.40 bird-and-dove postcard set is the lightest entry if you actually plan to mail cards. The $60 SCOTT-branded vintage lot offers the widest mix of postal material, from stamps to books, envelopes, and postcards. The 13-card Christmas greetings set delivers used holiday charm, and the $20 lot of 64 gives you the most stamp quantity, including unused 1- to 4-cent examples.

6 Original Postcards for Postcrossers STAMPS of BIRDS & PEACE DOVES
At $3.40, this is the most direct way into the stamps postcards category if you actually plan to mail something. The set uses stamp-inspired artwork with birds and peace doves, designed by Gentler Time Vintage from international postage stamp imagery. The cards come from the Photochrome era, and most don't have the usual stamp box and dividing line on the back, so they look less like standard postcards and more like little pieces of art. The limitation is scope: it's a single themed set, not a deep vintage accumulation. If you're after postal history, old books, or a large number of stamps, this won't satisfy that.
13 Antique Postcards Holiday Christmas Greetings Some With Stamps
For $11.16, you get a 13-card collection of holiday and Christmas greeting postcards, some with stamps. These are used originals from the post-war era, so they carry the patina of real mailed items: signs of age, spotting, and wear are part of the package. That makes them appealing for seasonal display, scrapbooking, or study of mid-century holiday correspondence. The unit of sale is a collection, and the theme is squarely greetings and holiday. The limitation is that you should be comfortable with used condition. Country of origin is unknown, and because they were posted, the cards are not pristine.
Vintage Antique Postal Stamps Books, Envelopes, Postcards
Among the four lots, the most expensive at $60 is also the broadest. This SCOTT-branded vintage collection spans United States and worldwide postal material, including stamps, books, envelopes, and postcards. The stamps are multi-color, rectangular, and show handstamped cancellations, which gives them a decidedly used, history-heavy character. They are uncertified and ungraded, so this is for someone who enjoys sorting through a mixed accumulation rather than expecting a graded or certified piece. The limitation is exactly that: nothing is certified, and the quality is ordinary, so you're paying for volume, variety, and vintage character, not for a proven collectible.
Lot of 64 - 1 Cent, 2 Cent, 3 Cent and 4 Cent Vintage Postcards-Unused Stamps
At $20, this lot gives you 64 vintage postcards from 1955, with unused postage stamps in 1, 2, 3, and 4 cent denominations. The set includes Jefferson, Franklin, Martha Washington, Statue of Liberty, and Lincoln designs, and the stamps are red, green, and purple. The cards are produced in the United States and are in good condition, though most are written or typed on both front and back; only seven are blank on the back. That makes it a strong choice for someone who wants a large batch of stamp-and-card material to sort through, but less ideal if you want clean, blank postcards for writing.
Final recommendation by use case
- For a hands-on, sendable introduction to stamps postcards, choose the bird-and-dove postcard set at $3.40.
- For holiday nostalgia and used postal character, the 13-card Christmas greetings collection at $11.16 is the right scale.
- For a deep, mixed vintage study with books, envelopes, and postcards, the $60 SCOTT-branded lot is the broadest.
- For a stamp-heavy set with unused denominations, go with the 64-card lot at $20.
