Art Nouveau Post Card - 1914

When my dad came to visit me last year, he brought armfuls of photos and other 'memorabilia' up from San Diego.

I'm still sorting through all the memories, photos, letters, scribblings, old currency and miscellanea...

I think the header is it's best feature. Also, note the cool font and the vanilla & bone colored tones of the aging paper:


And the 'glow in the dark' negative:


I'm still trying to decipher the hand writing on the back...

Hmmmm....

I LOVE POSTCARDS--so much to absorb by looking and listening to them! I have Post Secret as a conversational piece on the coffee table.

"Just a line to tell you that its a boy. Angie is getting along fine and is up, the baby is well to. I will ? with best wishes and regards to all from *writer of the card*. I can't figure out what the word between "will" and "with" is, however...that's what the rest says! Oh, Feb 3 1914, to Mr. Joseph P King Route 5 Farmington, Maine
