What are Souvenir Cards???
Souvenir cards are uniface proofs or essais produced by the original printer (or merged corporation) from archived master plates (either intaglio or in a few cases lithograph) of the original issued circulating notes, stamps, vignettes [used on securities, bonds, stocks, et al].  These are not photocopies but actual pieces produced in limited issue runs.  Shown in this listing is the 'note', 'stamp' or 'vignette' from the souvenir card produced to commemorate a Numismatic, Philatelic or other event along with the full face and back of the Souvenir card.  These cards may come:  (a) 'uncancelled' or without alteration; (b) 'show cancelled' to indicate they were USPS date stamp postal cancelled, by the USPS with/without stamps affixed at the commemorating show; (c) 'visitor's center cancelled' or 'Bureau Cancelled' where the BEP ink stamp cancelled cards which were purchased over the counter at their visitor's center or at other events.
