About this product

Product Information

The 220 beautiful postcards provide a nostalgic look at the Virginia Beach of yesterday, while 89 vibrant, color photos show the town today. Learn how Virginia Beach got its start and see the early boardwalk. Take a grand tour chronicling the changes, from its beginnings in 1878, when only the Seatack Lifesaving Station inhabited the shore, to the present day. View the Norwegian Lady statue of yesteryear and today, stroll the boardwalk through the decades, and compare today's Coast Guard Station to the early Seatack station. Also provided is a short history of postcards and their values. This book is perfect for all who love life on a beach.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Was hoping for more variety. MEH!

    Not a bad book if you have a casual interest in old postcards of VB. I am from the area and know it well. A good spread of cards over the years from 1915 to the 1970s. Too focused on the Princess Anne Hotel and The Cavalier across the years. Nothing about the North End and Fort Story. Missing scenes like Peppermint Beach Club, Chicho's, Worrell Brothers, The Raven, The Steel Pier, Rudee Inlet, East Coast Surfing Championships, or any surfing for that matter, Seaside Amusement Park, and countless interesting intersections and street views. I have several in my collection that doesn't show up. The last section of the book is the weakest. It consists of modern snapshots by the author who could benefit from a photography class or two. Some images are okay, but most are so-so. I got a good deal ...
