My jaw dropped when I found this in a collection of postcards of my Grandma's. I was admiring the ornate ones, the charming ones, the designs I see reproduced so often now but I have the true vintage item in my hand, and then this one, postmarked 1917.

Interesting, huh?

Ha ha ha! Imagine what our future generation (s) will see on postcards from today.
