2 real Bresnik photos (Earhart and Doolittle) and a set of Bresnik Earhart postcards

Just checking to see what you think of these Bresnik photos. Are they originals, and I cannot find any other Bresnik postcards of Earhart. Are these hard to find?

TIA, Bryan

 

The postcards look to be the same photo set as the uncut sheets offered in this auction:

A quick look around and I didn't see any postcards offered for sale recently.

It looks like the General photo has the name Bresnik blind stamped, so it does seems to be something he offered for sale.

 

What is blind stamped? Thanks

 

It looks like it's crimped in somehow; is the name raised when you run your fingers over it? The postcards were mass-produced. I don't think they're worth a whole lot.

Ok the Doolittle photo is blind stamped after looking at the Earhart photo under a loop the picture is dotted does that mean it is not original? Is the Doolittle photo one of a kind or would he have developed hundreds of these?

 

It would be something he sold and probably made a number of. The only thing that would be one of a kind would be if you had the original negative.

The Earhart picture was printed, not developed.
