Who Were They?

I meant to post these before Thanksgiving for your enjoyment, but I kinda forgot. :-) So, here let’s just pretend the mail delivery was slow and you just received a handful of beautiful Thanksgiving greetings from friends and family near and far…

Cute child & turkey

To Lucille from Velma & Harold

All of these cards date to the early 20th century based on the printing style and artwork. Only one bears a postmark, but all of them seem related in some way – either by recipients or by handwriting. They were probably in someone’s grandmother’s shoebox of cards that wound up in an antique shop, and then found there way here for our study and enjoyment. I hope for Americans that your Thanksgiving was restful and focused on our many blessings, and for others worldwide, may this kick off a season of peace & love to be found amid the strangeness of the 2020 world.
