From Photographer's Edge I buy blank note cards in which to put my photos
(tri-fold with windows and tape: very nice). But does anyone know of a
product that is a postcard ready to be printed with my photos?

Why not "print" the post card part on the back of your prints? IOW, take a
print, and run it through your computer's printer, and print the post card
part on the opposite side of the paper from the photograph.

The Canon CP-220 and CP-330 (the 330 runs on batteries or AC, the 220
just on AC and is $100 less) prints 4x6 plus 4x8 and 2 1/4 x 3 1/2
photos as dye sublimation prints on a waterproof, UV protected card
stock. The 4x6 paper has a postcard back with a place for the stamp and
all the usual lines. It is really a good little photo printer. I like
its output far more than ink jet prints and the cards go through the
mail just fine even if they get wet. Check them out. The CP 220 goes
for about $149 and the paper runs about 19.99 for a pack of 36 cards
(and this includes the ink cartridge for those prints). The 4x6 is
available at Best Buy, Target, CompUSA etc. You may have to go to mail
order to get the wallet size paper. I saw the 4x8 "Christmas Card"
stock at Staples. Also, the cartridge that holds the 4x6 paper comes
with the printer, but you need to buy the wallet size cartridge extra
if you want to use that.

Because photo paper isn't heavy enough.

So are newsgroups. And I didn't have to wade through 150k answers, most of
which are self-serving ads. This way I get answers from folks who have
actual experience with them, which is much more valuable. Thanks for your
reply.

Not true.....My 4 x 6's straight from the processing lab are just as stiff
as the post cards I buy at the drug store. Blindfolded, I doubt if I could
tell the difference.....

try avery 8387. you can print 4 postcards to a sheet. print your picture on
one side, then print the postcard area (blank then line in middle, and space
for address) on the other. Both sides are printable.

Not sure if you can still get them, but there's a product called Photo A La
Carte that's a stick-on for 4x6 pix. In other words, you peel the protector
off the 4x6 post card maker, stick your print on, and that's it. 800 219
1999 or photo-a-la-

I got the info above from my last pack of these things, so it may be out of
date.

My uncle used to make exactly that: postcards direct from his
negatives. That was in the 1930's and 1940's. He used a
3A Graflex camera, size 122 roll film that made negatives just
right for contact printing as postcards. That, and there were
manufacturers that made B&W papers for the purpose, with
the needed stuff printed on the back. I doubt if there's enough
demand for such a product to make it possible today.
