    USPS Publicity Photo
    Fine-Very Fine
    Mint Never Hinged
    The USPO Publicity Photo (sometimes referred to as Photo Essay) depicts the preliminary artwork of the postal card's indicia design. These photos are usually prepared before the postal card is manufactured. The design in the photo will vary from the actual postal card. They are intended for use in print publications to promote the postal card. And also for first day cover cachet designers who must do their work before the postal card is issued. The photos are usually 3 by 4 inches or 4 by 3 inches on glossy black & white photo stock. The photo is considered by many collectors to be an important part of the postal card's development history.
