Topic: Very old Disney postcards from Italy, need help

1	oc_dean Sun 10/25/2009 7:45p	I know of someone with some Disney postcards that came from Italy in the 1930s. On the back it says - Casa Editrice BALLERINI & FRATINI - Firenze Licenza WALT DISNEY. It's a set of four - One with Mickey, Minnie, Clara Bell the cow, and a male mate on a roller coaster. Second - Mickey and Donald in a ring in a circus. Third - One of Donald & the fourth being fished out by two young "mickeys". I probably should scan them .. and stick them on my picasa page. But my friend and I are curious how rare and valuable they are. I tried ebay .. did all kinds of google searches. Not coming up with anything. But if anyone knows of a postcard site or two for 1930s Italian Disney postcards .. that would be cool. Thank you all, in advance, for any help.

He does have a contact page, it just takes a few clicks to find it. Good luck!!! ...and I would love to see the postcards if you do scan them.
