  1. Excellent seller. The vintage postcard of the USS America is exactly as described with fast shipping, sturdy, protective packaging and a great value for the price! Especially since the ship is now a fish habitat and no more photos or post cards will ever be made of her again! Thank you for providing these keepsakes at affordable prices!
