Post Card Saturday!

Here we are again - Saturday already. And that means it's time for one of my awesome postcards!

We have another oldie on tap tonight. Up there, of course, you see the full front of the post card itself. And another card from Massachusetts - this time Brockton, as you can see here. It's a picture of their high school. Well, what once was their high school back in 1908. I did a search, and the pictures of it now are far more modern.

But you want to hear something odd, but in a cool way? Apparently they have eimages of this postcard and some others that you can send through email. Click Here and you can see some. And the postcard that I have is on another site, too. 

I'll be honest. I haven't done much research (or really *any, lol) on collecting post cards. I know I really, really  should, so I can figure out what all I actually have. Even this, turning up the high school and other old postcards tells me I should do it. So maybe I will!

For now, back to *this* postcard, lol. As you can see, the message to the person is on the *front*. Short and sweet since there's not much room there.

Dear B. get Mondays paper and about what I see before I come home on Sunday.

Here's the back. Name, city, state and nothing more. Lancaster must have been much smaller way back in 1908. As you can also see, one person who was selling this card clearly thought it was worth $3.00. Not bad for one card, I reckon. Again, since I've done no research, I have no idea if that's a good price or not, lol.

Yeah... I really need to start looking stuff up...

Oh! And sometime today, this blog hit its 5000th view! Woot!
