Discover a unique piece of amateur radio history with this vintage QSL card, confirming a 1952 contact between W7OTL in Emmett, Idaho, and W7FTX in Hamilton, Montana. The front of the card prominently features the W7OTL call sign and details the QSO (two-way radio communication) specifics, including the date of June 11, 1952, frequency (3.9 Mgs), signal report (RST 58), and equipment used (Rcvr. BC-348, Xmtr. 6AG7-807). It's personally signed by William M. Borup, W7OTL, and humorously notes a "YL contact, (no, 2nd!)".This collectible card offers a fascinating glimpse into mid-century amateur radio communications, showcasing the tradition of exchanging QSL cards to verify contacts. The reverse side is postmarked from Emmett, Idaho, on May 29, 1953, and bears two 1-cent US postage stamps, addressed to Clarice L. Goodman, W7FTX, in Hamilton, Montana. It's a genuine historical artifact for collectors of ham radio memorabilia, Idaho and Montana ephemera, or vintage postcards.
