The Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Postal Card Collection was acquired by Special Collections and University Archives over many years.
The processing, arrangement, and description of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Postal Card Collection was completed in January 2016.
The collection contains approximately 250 postcards. Dated cards range from 1906 through 1995, but many cards are not dated. Cards depict various subjects including campus views, campus buildings, football, Corps of Cadets, and Blacksburg views. Some of the postcards are postmarked and addressed to recipients, while some are blank.
This collection is arranged chronologically by decade, with undated postcards at the beginning.
