    Postcard mailed from Iran to San Francisco, bearing a 5 rials mosque stamp and 10 rials portrait stamp. The handwritten message is unusually vivid, mentioning local unrest, “bombs,” and concern for Americans abroad. Forwarding labels and a second address add to its postal history interest. A compelling mid-century snapshot of personal communication during a tense political moment.

      Hi, Sorry I didn't see the notification of this comment. I don't know the exact date, but based on the stamps and the message...mid 1960's to early 1970's.
