Deadwood, South Dakota: Text on Back:  Deadwood, South Dakota - It was over 120 years ago when prospectors struck gold in Deadwood Gulch, Dakota Territory and that is how the town of Deadwood was born. All of downtown is a National Historic Landmark. When you walk down Main Street, it is like setting your watch back 100 years. Postcard is unused and in very good condition.

Nevada Fixer Upper - Text on back: Take advantage of the real estate mania while it lasts. In 1840, due to the stock market crash and depression, one could buy all the $25,000 houses one wanted for $100. Between 1929 and 1933, the average parcel of real estate lost 90% of its value. Could it happen again? Daniel Stewart PhD Economics. Postcard is new, unused and in mint condition.

Mount Moriah Cemetery, Deadwood, South Dakota - Text on back: Wild Bill Hickok (1837-1876) American frontier scout and famed lawman of the West. Hickok liked to gamble at cards and while playing in a poker game, he was shot in the back by Jack McCall, on August 2, 1876. Wild Bill was holding Ace's and Eight's when he was shot, forever after called the "Dead Man's Hand." Calamity Jane (1852-1903) was the nickname of Martha Jane Canary, a famous American frontierswoman. She was an expert with horse and rifle and served as a scout for General George Custer.
