    Wonder who it was that "walked by here" in '46. Hmmm.

    A lot of emotion, detail and energy in the message on the back of that card, the author probably should have gone into writing travel guides...

    It really doesn't get any better than that message! The fact that they wanted people to know they'd walked by J.J. Newberry and Kress is amazing. Don't you want to know what they walked by next?

    Super, super post card scene. Love the note on the back, too. Thanks!

    Did there used to be many more postcards printed and sent than now? I can't imagine this being produced nowadays, let alone posted but there's so much in it it marks a moment in time; a real document of history; and that someone took the trouble to draw it - and so well!

    The message on the back is the invisible title for most of our photographic blogs.

    It's pretty random which of your postcards I see because I don't visit every day - but I'm glad I happened upon this one.

    Fabulous card! The architecture of that J.J. Newberry store is just too cool.
