    Description

    This is a UX20 McKinley Postal Card that was postmarked in June of 1909 in West Point, Virginia, and sent to a destination on Clay Street in Richmond.
    The sender is concerned with an order and he references "Cocoa Cola": "... 3 crates of Cocoa Cola were included. I filled the balance and leave you the Cocoa Cola to fill..."
    Incidentally, 1909 was the same year that the Pure Food and Drug Act passed, and the US government seized 40 barrels and 20 kegs of Coca-Cola because they considered the added caffeine to be a harmful ingredient, according to Wikipedia.
    I'll provide free standard shipping in the United States, but you can add .00 to your winning bid (and please shoot me a message to confirm your intention) if you want me to set up mail tracking services.
    Thanks for looking!
