Mr. Frank Van Gordon, 1912
Dear Old Friend:
How are you. I am fine and dandy. Marie said she was raising (or saving?) her daughter for you so don’t get married. “Ha Ha”. I never got your letter until the other day and will just send you a card. Haven’t seen tasel(?) for a long time. Well so long my son.
Yours,
Chuck

My favorite thing about this postcard is actually not necessarily what’s written on the card, but the intricate “Post Card” script with the picture of the C. Other than that, I love the moniker “old friend.” I love the “fine and dandy”, I love the joking about getting married. These are clearly two people who’s bonds went deep.
