Japan- Post WWII
After World War II, a little boy named Jerry lived in the house next to the one I live in now. He became pen pals with a little boy in Japan. Here are some of the postcards Jerry received from his pen pal.
Here are the backs of the cards. I don't understand any Japanese, so any input is appreciated.

Cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat was the significance of the harmonica I wonder?
ReplyDeleteI don't read any Japanese either but I love the images Arigato.
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely beautiful. The postcard one he top is absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful cards. The second one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteWow, those are awesome postcards! I've never seen those. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteGraphics on the first one are awesome, second one's gauzy moonlit harmonica serenade is interesting, but I like the 3rd one best for its young Japanese Bob Dylan leading the flock quality....
ReplyDeleteThe harmonica card....is that a military outfit of some sort that he's wearing?
ReplyDeleteWay cool! The illustrations are great. What a neat connection with the Pen Pal.
