I was poking around eBay tonight and came across an auction for this post card rack. It is apparently a rack used for the W.C. Jones 3D cards that feature mostly Jungle Book scenes and a few other random scenes.
The cards (NT0609 thru NT0622A) were printed in 1967 in Japan, according to the Nickel Tour. I don’t have a complete set of these, but they are indeed very hefty cards. And while this rack pictured here is no doubt rather rare, it would have to be the collector with just that perfect spot on the wall to want to shell out $500 to pick up this item.
If you are that collector…now is the time! I suspect that this rack is unique. I am amazed it has survived this long.
Until next time…
