Postcards are an incredible look into the past. Long before the days of texting and social media, sending a card in the mail was the preferred and even “trendy” form of “modern” communication. Today, we see postcards as nostalgic reflects of an era long ago. We keep and collect them as they offer us a tiny glimpse into a person’s life and experience.
