[The ACSC mistakenly lists the Die Crack variety at $60 used: this is less than the quoted used price for a 'normal' card ($150) and has been carried over from the listing of envelopes ES79d in error; for ES79d the Die Crack is priced at 7½-times the 'normal' envelope; if this same multiplier were applied to the Stamped-To-Order Postal Card with Die Crack, this should be catalogued at $1125 in used condition]
