The small text on the front of this card seems to indicate that it was published shortly after the release of Snow White in 1937.\u00a0\u00a0The publisher of the card, Valentine &amp; Sons, Ltd., was founded in Dundee, Scotland in 1825. \u00a0After a long and successful run, what remained of the company was ultimately sold to Hallmark in 1980.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sundrycollectibles.net\/disneypostcards\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/cut-out_no5_0001.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2320\" alt=\"cut-out_no5_0001\" src=\"https:\/\/sundrycollectibles.net\/disneypostcards\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/cut-out_no5_0001-185x300.jpg\" width=\"185\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sundrycollectibles.net\/disneypostcards\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/cut-out_no5_0001-185x300.jpg 185w, https:\/\/sundrycollectibles.net\/disneypostcards\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/cut-out_no5_0001.jpg 396w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 185px) 100vw, 185px\" \/><\/a>I just received this numeral 5 in the mail today&#8230;and was surprised to find that it had a glossy finish on the front. \u00a0I would have thought the card would have more of a matte or linen finish&#8230;but it is glossy. \u00a0I didn&#8217;t think that they made glossy cards as early as the 1930&#8217;s, so I will be asking my fellow collectors at the San Francisco Bay Area Post Card Club (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.postcard.org\/\">SFBAPCC<\/a>) to see if this card really was published in the 1930&#8217;s or was of later vintage.<\/p>\n<p>Either way&#8230;I found the art work on this card irresistable!
