Vintage Las Vegas Postcards (Part 1)

A postcard or post card is a rectangular piece of thick paper or thin cardboard intended for writing and mailing without an envelope. Shapes other than rectangular may also be used.

The U.S. Postal Service defines a postcard as: rectangular, at least 3 1⁄2 inches high × 5 inches long and no more than 4 1⁄4 inches high × 6 inches long. Some postcards have deviated from this standard.
