Post Card Saturday


That time again - already! Post Card Saturday! Got another oldie tonight. One of these days I need to go through them all again, and put them oldest to youngest. And next week maybe one from my own collection, post cards sent to me. We'll see how the mood strikes, lol.

Here is the back. As you see, there is a message, address with no zip code. The stamp is still there, which so many of them aren't. 

And a close up of the postmark date:






Here's the message, written in pencil. It's surprising how many of these things are written in pencil, lol.

Lockridge, Ia.

Dear Ruth, 
We are all well and hhope your [sic] the same. will write later

No name or anything, just that. Still, it's a nice postcard of the Swiss Alps. Given that the blurb is in English, there's no knowing if the card came from overseas or not, though I don't know why American post card publishers would make those. There may be a reason, of course, lol.

So there you have it - Post Card Saturday. On Saturday even!

:)
