Birthday Greetings


This beautiful birthday card was sent in 1913. I have trouble reading the old German script, but I can see that the first line is Liebe Mutter or Dear Mother. The scan doesn't show how brightly the gold on the card shines. Be sure to click on it to enlarge it and see the detail. Such a beauty!

    What a wonderful postcard. It is truly beautiful. I clicked the larger picture, and you've caught the glimmering gold so beautifully.

    Thank you for sharing this lovely card with us!
