Postcard
Estimated value: $5-$8
San Francisco in the early 1900s was rebuilding and modernizing following the catastrophic 1906 earthquake and fire, with the city leveraging mail and communications infrastructure to reconnect with the wider nation. The use of 2-cent stamps on this cover reflects the standard postal rate for first-class mail during the pre-1932 era, when San Francisco's economy was rapidly recovering and expanding.
