Post Card Saturday!

And it's still Saturday!

This is a pretty one. You can't really tell from the picture, but the "crown" and the gold trim on the dress are embossed. They stick up and sparkle, anyway, as do the letters, lol. Just a pretty card, I have always thought. 

Here's the full back. 







Note the postmark - 1913. And this is one of the few cards to make it to me with the stamp. :D  The address is a little more complete, but still no zip codes yet, I guess. 

And here is the message. As best I can read it, it says...

Dear Cousin - I am ashamed I have not answered your card before. Hope you all are well as I am sure it leaves me that way. I was going down home for a while yesterday but Gramph did not come after me. Tell Auntie I will write a few things about something that has happened down there pretty soon. Love, Bernice

Apparently even without Facebook, cable TV, and smart phones, people managed to keep in touch, lol. 

So there you have it - another Post Card Saturday. Hope you enjoyed!

:)
