<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsalexan, post: 2192925, member: 24274&quot;]Happy to offer advice. First note -- the Hawaii cards are not rare, but because they are attractive they have more market value. Very few souvenir cards are rare and with less people collecting these days prices are not as strong as they once were, especially for cards in the 1980s and &#039;90s. If you check on ebay you&#039;ll see there&#039;s more supply than demand. That&#039;s particularly true of philatelic souvenir cards (stamps).</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, there are a few better cards, generally the limited editions sold only at shows by lottery. These are known widely as &quot;pulled proofs&quot; although they really aren&#039;t proofs, nor are they &quot;pulled&quot; on the demo press at the show. The best place to get a sense of the retail value of your cards is on Ken Barr&#039;s website: <a href="http://www.kenbarr.com/souvcd.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.kenbarr.com/souvcd.html" rel="nofollow">www.kenbarr.com/souvcd.html</a>. He also posts links to images of most cards to help identify them. Good luck and let us know if you find any good ones among your purchase.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
