And the message to Mr. Geo Ray of Bridgewater, New York reads:

Here's a card with a similar style.
About Me
- Christine H.
- 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!
Lovely postcards, the first one especially, and of course the message leaves a whole bunch of questions unanswered :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I just love Christmas in the Land of Children With No Faces!! Guess the artist never made it thru that drawing lesson...
ReplyDeleteI really like these cards. They are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh I really enjoy that first one, those little ones are just darling, and you know Mommy and Daddy are waiting on the other side of that door...But, the second one...reminds me of today's fast pace...they only signed their names! Hmm what does it cost to say hope you're doing well! or something don't you think!
ReplyDeleteThese are great postcards - thanks for sharing them and have a great Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHa ha. I love the first one. Except the lack of facial features is a little bit creepy.
ReplyDeleteCharming! I wonder if he got to eat dinner with his friend.
ReplyDeleteLovely postcards
ReplyDeletesuch sweet postcards!!
ReplyDeletethe first one is my favorite!!!
Christmas Blessings to you!!!
I love the messages you find on the backs of cards! Early texting but without the bad spelling. :)
ReplyDeleteI think what fascinates me most about postcard messages is the evidence that people are the same, whether born now or a hundred years ago.
Cute cards. The first one reminds me of my childhood, but the second is my favorite.
