Nowadays, postcards are either landscapes and waterfronts, or public buildings. In the past, there was much more variety, and the more interesting ones in the Society's archives may be those of local businesses. Of the ones shown here, we may have stories and other photos in our files, and may show you more individually in the future. But for now, we hope you will just enjoy the cards themselves…
we wonder what the message means …
