I'll guess "Leonard" is the scrawled signature; I'd sure listen to other theories. Looks like the PT Cruiser's great-grandpa on the right. My uncle traveled to Florida in the 1920s and 1930s, and the handful of postcards he had showed a pretty exotic Florida. Jack/Youngstown
Curb, what curb?? Say Honey, get me another beer outta the back seat... Oh, hello officer! Um, geeze, I thought it was diagonal parking here, not parallel, I sure am sorry- would you like a beer?
I love antique postcards because they preserve evidence of everyday life as well as celebrations and sad events. Looking at an old postcard is like holding a single piece of a puzzle; we have to imagine the rest.
I will try to put up a postcard every day. If you have a special request for a particular city or place, let me know!
Another great street scene Christine!! You've got me hooked on them now. I like that ivy green facade.

ReplyDeleteI love it. I think I should go there as swimming in warm weather would be fun.

ReplyDelete"Palm Beach, April 10, 1945". Well, some locales during WWII were better than other locales.:-) Jack/Youngstown
ReplyDeleteLovely. And another of those wonderful American cards where you can almost feel the texture of the card itself.
