Wanted Dead or Alive
updated 02/25/08
Here is a list of my top meteorite/meteor crater postcard wants. They are not in any particular order. I am also interested in images of cards I do not have. So even if you don't want to sell them please send me an image.
I will pay top dollar for any of the cards listed but will pay ever better prices for cards I have never seen before. I do have extras of several cards listed here as well as many cards not listed here. So if you want to build your own collection lets do some trading.
I also want to thank Mark Bostick for giving me permission to link to his fine meteorite postcard site.
1 American Meteorite Museum cards I already have one copy of most of these cards but I am always looking for cancelled and even varieties of the backs (except AMM8 of course). Images of the cards
2 Meteor Crater "X" series X-8080 thru X-8090 especially interested in X8085, 86 & 87. Could be others in this series?? Let me know if you have some for sale. Images of X series I don't have an X8084 card. Not sure if it is meteor crater related or not. I would like to know.
3 Meteor Crater E-4000 series Especially interested in E-4202, E4277 with specimen attached, E4278 & 79 Images of E
4 Meteor Crater 7-A-## series Images of the series Especially want 7-A-77, 7-A-79, 7-A-82 & 7-A-86. Would like to know if 7-A-83 is meteor crater related or not. Send me an image if you have a copy of it.

7 Old Meteor Mine I just love this card. I would love either cancelled or uncancelled.

12 Cards with a piece of Canyon Diablo attached. I have three already but I do want duplicates. E4277 & 111 cards
13 Chrome postcards from Meteor Crater dated 60s, 70s & 80's. Don't find these on Ebay as they are too cheap to sell.
14 Arizona & Texas Map cards with "Meteor Crater" written on them. Especially the cheap chromes.
15 Odessa Crater cards. One linen and one damn ugly Chrome card(yes it is a view of the crater...at least that is what the text on the back says). Yes, I really do want copies of both of these.
16 Any foreign cards such as Kaali crater, Ries Crater, Steinheimer (Steinheim basin impact structure), older Ensisheim, Vienna Museum of Natural History card.
17 Jilin China meteorite cards Images There is also a card from 2003 that shows the meteorite on display at a museum.
18 Hoba meteorite cards Image
19 Meteor crater with airplane flying over. All of these cool Meteor Crater cards.
20 Misc. meteorite cards. I am constantly amazed when I find a meteorite card I didn't know existed.
Added bonus; Find a card for me that I don't have and I will add $5 for the first one I purchase. Find one that I didn't know existed and I will add $10 to the price. Both cards must be pre chromes. Valid until I have received my first card.
