Post Card Saturday!


Here we are, back again - Post Card Saturday! The moment you've all been waiting for all week, right? Ha ha! Thanks for indulging me anyway.

So that is the card at the top, of course. Another nice and historic one. If you see here, the name of the place - in Brewer's Fountain and State House, Boston, Mass. There are a lot of cards in my collection from New England. Maybe I'll get there someday...

Regardless, this is another oldie but goodie. Look at that date - 1917. And that address - yikes! You have to wonder how stuff actually got delivered. A name, a city, and a state. But it seems to have gotten somewhere back then. Let's hope Mr. Straw was the actual recipient, since he was the intended receiver, lol.

But here's the message, short and sweet:

Why hello how are you. I am good at present. Hope Homer don't miss me.
Jack of all trades

An odd message that, but it had to mean something to them at the time, of course. For now, I will add it to my growing list of mysteries, lol.

Enjoy!

:)
