United Bookmarks

At some point in the late 70s or early 80s, United gave out bookmarks to passengers. They are not quite collector cards, but we thought they should be included. They are blank on the back. As a note, they are sorted by date and then alphabetically.

Rarity is subjective, but based on the Pilot Card Guys' experience. Many cards have a higher value but are relatively common. So rarity is not closely correlated to value on eBay.
