    Here is a leather post card that I found in the collection of stamps I got two weeks ago. Any thoughts on this? I keep finding more treasures in my stamp purchase. I also found a bunch of coins from around the world.

      These leather postcards were popular in the very early 20th century.

      The condition of this example is a little rough.

      Famous building from "Sophia", Bulgaria??

      Thanks Scott. I thought Sophia sent the card. Lol
      The date 1903 is just to the left of the stamp.

      Looks like you are correct on the name-- I just blew up the photo and now I see that the "Sophia" is NOT part of the picture, but was done by hand with ink.

      I don't know the building or location.

      The postmark looks like it is from Dorchester. Anyone know of a building there that would resemble the one on the card?

      Sure looks like the Boston, MA post office.
