$50000 Rarest Vintage Postcard and Oldest In The World 1840

What's the oldest postcard in the world? Well, a novelist by the name of Theodore Hook sent it as a practically joke in 1840. The front features a cheeky caricature of the postal system and there is a Penny Black stamp on the back. The Penny Black stamp came out in 1840 and is the world's first adhesive stamp used in a public postal system.
