Just found a bunch of vintage airline postcards in the attic!

So, I was cleaning out some old boxes in my attic and stumbled upon a stack of vintage airline postcards. Can't believe they'd been up there all these years! Most of them are from the 1970s and 1980s, featuring airlines like Pan Am, TWA, and Braniff. The artwork on these things is amazing, such a throwback to a different era of flying.

I'm curious if anyone else collects these or knows how much they're worth? Not really sure if I should keep them or try selling. They seem to be in decent shape, but I'm not an expert.

Also, how do you guys store your postcard collections? Any tips on preserving them? Don't want them to get damaged after all these years. Let me know what you think!
I'd hang onto them if I were you. Vintage airline postcards can be pretty collectible, especially ones from defunct airlines like Pan Am and TWA. The value can vary a lot depending on rarity and demand, but some enthusiasts are willing to pay a good price. For storing, try using acid-free sleeves or albums to keep them in good shape. Humidity and sunlight are the enemies here! Have you checked any online forums or groups for collectors? They might give you a better idea of their worth.
