Choices You Have of Being Entertained

Miss Mary Morgan (unknown date)

Dear Mary,

This is just a line to let you know I’ll expect you (and Helen) Sunday at 1:00 for dinner and (?) afterword. (the question mark stands for the choices you have for being entertained.)

Well, I guess that’s all. Till Nov. 21.

Love,

Aunt Mae

I wonder what they chose to do that night?

Front of Postcard. The postcard seems to be somewhere between 1930-1950. Thanksgiving fell on November 21 in 1940…perhaps that’s when this “line was dropped”?

Sit Up and Take Notice

Mr. Warren Spitler, 1920

Am having the time of my life. Can you find me on the beach? Come down, the water is fine. All well and able to sit up and take notice (?).

Effy.

A postcard showing a variety of men and women laying out on the beach in old fashioned 1920's swimwear. A group of people are playin in the blue waves, while some have umbrella's to keep out the sun.

They Get So Little Time to Write

To Miss Alma Weber, 1912

My Dear Niece,

I am writing for the boys. They get so little time to write as they go to school at night. I expect Otto home Friday and they will all come Saturday morning the 26.

Lovingly,

Aunt Lena

(top corner): Meet them Saturday Morning, the 26.
