Happy Valentines Day!
These are just a few Vintage Penny Postcard Valentines.
There is something so sweetly simply about Penny Postcards,
I always find them hard to resist.
The back reads:
I send this word
to you my love,
I will always hold true,
As long as you love me,
my love.
I surely will love you.
Jesse
Cards sent in a simple time when strreet addresses were not necessary,
Just a name, town, and state name got it there.
The brief messages make me think of text messages,
big thoughts abbreviated into small spaces.
The old way was so much more endearing :-)
Thanks for stopping by,
Hope your Valentines Day is Special!

Love these!
I have a few old postcards that my great-grandmother received from admirers and friends as a young woman...it seemed like the popular thing in her day...like texting today. I also love that all they had to do was write a name and a town and state, maybe a street name, and that was all you needed to send one to someone!
Beautiful blog...I miss it down in Puyallup! I visit often though. I'll add you to my site.
Happy "almost" Spring! ;)
