Date from stamp box: Curt Teich Postcards used several different ways to number their cards over the years. By the 1930s, a letter would denote the decade ("A" - 1930s, "B" - 1940s, "C" - 1950s, "D" - 1960s, "E" - 1970s) and the number before the letter would indicate the year within that decade. In 1931 another letter was added after the decade letter. This indicated different printing processes. A "K" was used to indicate Curteichcolor, which is a chrome postcard printing process. This postcard has "8CK1912" printed within the postage square, indicating it is a 1958 Curteichcolor card.
