September NA RR - Mailboxes

I love this card from Michele!  In the 1950s many cities offered separate mailboxes for local and out of town mail to speed processing.  Marketing photos like this promoted their use.

September NA RR - Mission San Francisco Solano

Love this card from Victoria!  Mission San Francisco Solano is the last established and most northerly of California's 21 missions.  It was founded in 1823, then part of the Republic of Mexico.  It fell into ruin in later years and was used as a winery and hay storage.  It is now beautifully restored and open to the public.

September NA RR - Young Brando

I had quite the thing for Marlon Brando when I was younger. I watched A Streetcar Named Desire so many times. On the Waterfront was right up there too!  Thank you Susan for this awesome card! 

September NA RR - Cave of the Mounds

Located in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin this definitely sounds like an attraction I would visit if in the area!  Thank you Ashley!

September NA RR - Wedding Dress

This postcard is from Mariela Gemisheva's  "My Wedding Dresses on the Roof" fashion performance.  I guess I have no sense of fashion because I am not a fan of that dress.

September NA RR - Vintage Beaches




Fiona spoiled me by sending me FOUR vintage beach cards from the UK.  Her story continued over the back of all four as she recalled summer vacations at these places as a child.  Love them!  Thank you, Fiona!

Katie has sent me this delightful front door.  I love the lush greenery surrounding it and the fact that it is an arch shape.  Beautiful!

Battle Creek, Michigan is best known for cereal.  This card from Taylor is fun because it showcases the downtown area from three different eras.  Thanks, Taylor!
