About Asylum Postcards

This website shares my collection of asylum postcards from the United States.  I started collecting asylum postcards in 1997.  I collect asylum postcards from all cities and all states.  I also collect some sanatorium and sanitarium postcards as well as state schools for feeble minded.  At this point in time I have over 1,000 asylum postcards in my collection.  This website took a lot of time and effort to put together.  I have been to countless postcard shows and I also search eBay many times per day.  There are some other sites out there that sell postcards.  I have provided a Resourses page that includes some of the legistics of collecting postcards.  My collection is cataloged by state then by city and every postcard has a barcode.  I have a peice of software than catalogs all postcards with title, publisher, cost, along with images of the front and backs of each postcard.  

Be courteous and give credit when using any image acquired from this site.  Thank You.
