Hawaii - Don the Beachcomber's Luau

This card leaves me speechless. What could I possibly add to this?

Ma Forgot the Potato Chips!

Who cares about the Knickerbocker Hotel? What I care about is that Ma forgot the potato chips. How could she?

The message from Ma (who forgot the potato chips!) reads:

Pat dearest,

Just got your card and delighted to hear from you. Sorry I forgot the potato chips; I didn't even see them anywhere. Mrs. Runyeon is here and sent her love to you.  (?) working hard at the convention and have not much time to play. Called Helen Krauel yesterday but couldn't get her. Will try again. Much love - Ma.

Lastly, I must admit that I wondered how Ma would feel that about her card being read by others some 66 years later.

Cornell University - Ithaca, New York

This is an affirmation. If you are a Cornell student and you're feeling a little blue, print this out and hang it on your wall.

The message, sent to Winifred Keeler in Union, New York in 1913 reads:

Jan., 19.

Only one week more before exams. How do you like this winter weather? Suppose you had a great time skating on the marsh. There has been only one day of skating here.
