Logging Camp Cookhouse

This looks like a logging camp kitchen to me. Although there's quite a bit of detail, I'd love to see more. This is not the clearest picture, but the perspective is very interesting.

Here are a few close-ups. You can see another person in the background bending over something.

And boxes of biscuit flour on the shelf...

Here's the back of the card. The stamp box imprint indicates that the card was printed between 1905 and 1920.  Too bad there weren't any tales of life at the camp written on the back. Her's a link to another logging camp cookhouse image.

Happy New Year, Herr Stoltz

Adolf Stoltz moved from Markirch, Germany to Lawrence, Massachusetts. Markirch became part of France after World War I, but by then Herr Stoltz had been in Massachusetts for a number of years.
This is a card wishing Herr Stoltz a Happy New year. It was postmarked on Christmas Day, 1910.

And here's the back of the card.

The handwriting is not so tidy, and it's that awful old German script, but I was able to make some of it:

Dear Friend I wish you a Happy New Year...We received your package with joy. Thank you for that....Greetings from Schweigert Henri.

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.
