    FREE SHIPPING - AS USUAL!
    (Because of advancing age and the problems that go with same, I'll be cutting back on the
    number of items in my ebay store over the next few months - especially items that are
    difficult to ship [like oversized pre ww1 sheet music and other oversized items] as well as inexpensive items that have been
    listed for more than 2 years without much buyer interest. If you are watching such an
    item in my store, you'd best buy it now before it's permanently removed).
    1938 snapshot photo of elderly, aged African American woman, standing in a front yard - almost certainly in the Birmingham Alabama area. Huge reflection of dignity and character in this image.
    Photo measures 3 inches wide and just under 5 inches tall.
    Verso shows small stamp of Birmingham Alabama camera shop, Lollar's, along with the date May 9, 1938.
    Great vernacular photograph.
    (Starting 18 March 2020 - though I'm social distancing myself and have absolutely no symptoms - I will rub [until dry] a fresh dollop of hand sanitizer into my hands immediately before picking your items from my shelves and packing them - and again when I mail them).
    Scanned at LOW RESOLUTION (actual photo will be sharper when you see it). Some crinkling or creasing (moderate) in upper right hand corner; lower rh corner is broken off as you can see in the 2nd and 3rd scans - does not affect the lady's image however. GOOD ONLY

    WE REGRET WE DON'T SHIP OUT OF USA; SORRY, BUT
    NO EXCEPTIONS.
    FREE shipping via CAREFULLY PACKED, cardboard & plastic sleeve-protected STANDARD RATE 1st class mail.
    Regardless of what ebay may say on their "Shipping Page," this - while STANDARD MAIL is perfectly safe for smaller & less expensive items - is NOT the same grade of service as a "First Class Mail Package."
    I ship AT LEAST twice a week (and OCCASIONALLY 3 times per week) so turnover time or handling time is 3
    business
    days (Mon-Fri)
    max
    - often less than that.
    PAYPAL IS THE MUCH PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT.
    Thanks!
    Please pay within 4 days. Delayed? Then email me - I'll try to work with you when necessary but it helps a lot when I have contact with you. If your payment is delayed, ebay is liable to send a dun or two. PLEASE NOTE THAT THOSE ARE COMING AUTOMATICALLY FROM EBAY AND
    NOT
    FROM ME. I typically send out just one reminder.
    PLACING A BID IS THE ETHICAL EQUIVALENT OF ACCEPTING THESE TERMS. PLEASE DON'T ASK TO ALTER THEM AFTERWARDS.
    In return, as our feedback clearly shows, we'll get your item(s) to you, as described, in a safe, timely manner. Thanks!
