More Penny Postal Greetings from Early Last Century

In the early 1900s, my husband's Wood family mailed each other penny postal greetings for every conceivable holiday.

Here's a colorful postcard sent to Wallis W. Wood in Cleveland, Ohio more than a century ago.

The card was from his aunt Rachel "Nellie" Wood Lewis Kirby in Chicago, staying in touch for Washington's birthday (traditionally February 22nd).

Happy President's Day!
