Post Card Saturday

Once more, it is time! Got an interesting one tonight, or I think it is. Short and sweet, but it's still a good one.

Here's the front. The card itself "feels" old, for sure. And it's pretty, obviously a tourist spot. But if you look around the edge of the card - there is nothing identifying what it is, lol. Nothing on the back, either.

Here's the back. Note the lack of address, just "Mummy". Haha - I think even the postman would have trouble delivering that one. My guess is that it was just used as a note that was left for someone or hand delivered.


The message dates the card, at least a little - 1951. And I'm pretty sure this is from England. Both the "Mummy" and the price of 20p (written in pencil on the card) suggests that. But here's the message if you can't read it:

Our National Day, 1951 With all our loves.
Mavis & Chris

Here's a link to a page about National Day if, like me, you weren't sure what that was. Go here.

So there you have it - another awesome card!

:)
